Snowball Analytics vs Sharesight: pricing, forecasting and features compared

Dividend forecasting: how far ahead, and how sure

Every tracker here lists upcoming payouts. The difference is whether it projects each future payment on its own date, how far ahead it goes, whether it says how confident it is, and whether the method is published.

Snowball Analytics

Partly — Projects payouts for the next 12 months, month by month, with average dividend growth per holding. No dated multi-year forecast or confidence rating.

Sharesight

Partly — The Future Income report lists paid, pending, announced and estimated upcoming dividends; no multi-year dated forecast or confidence rating.

Dividend Wealth

Yes — Each future payment is projected individually with a date, an amount, a growth assumption and a High, Medium or Low confidence tier, out to 10 years in the what-if projections. Built from each holding's own payment history, with the method published.

Which should you pick?

Pick Snowball Analytics if: You hold assets beyond stocks and ETFs (real estate, P2P lending, crypto, bonds), trade on exchanges outside North America and Europe, import from a European broker by report file, or care more about IRR and benchmark analysis than about dividend forecasting.

Pick Sharesight if: You hold stocks across several countries or currencies, need tax reports (capital gains, taxable income) as much as dividend tracking, or import trades from a broker outside North America.

Pick Dividend Wealth if: You invest for dividend income first and want every payment forecast with a date, an amount and a confidence tier, scored for safety and reconciled to your statements, with research, lists and comparisons you can read without an account.
