- Pays: weekly — 61 distributions since June 30, 2025, typically ex-dividend Mondays.
- The eye-opener: the trailing 12 months paid $32.79 per share — more than the recent ~$28.46 share price itself. Robinhood's monster year, echoed at 1.2x and paid out weekly: the record single check was $2.458 (August 2025); recent weeks run $0.32-$0.40.
- What it is: Roundhill's WeeklyPay fund on ROBINHOOD — swap-based exposure targeting 1.2x HOOD's weekly return, with a distribution every week.
- Not option income: like sibling PLTW, it sells nothing — the payout is a slice of a leveraged position, so upside isn't capped and downside is amplified.
- The checks swing violently: recent weeks span roughly 24 to 59 cents — a leveraged echo of whatever HOOD's stock just did.
HOOW's distributions vary sharply week to week and carry return-of-capital mechanics; 1.2x leverage means it falls harder than Robinhood's stock in down weeks.
HOOW pays weekly. Each point below is one distribution since mid-2025 — note how violently the amounts swing versus any option-income fund we track.

Each point is one payment; the line ends at the most recent payout. The table below totals them by year.
- Trailing 12 months: $32.42 per share across 52 payments — paying since Jun 2025, so no full prior-year comparison yet. What a change like that does to your income →
- Current pace: recent payments annualize to $18.75 — 42% below the trailing figure. When those two disagree, the trailing yield is quoting the past. Live cut & raise board →
- Share price, same 12 months: down 47% (dividends excluded) — income and principal are one story. Erosion Index →
- Record: 62 payments over 14 months; the largest single payment was $2.46 (Aug 2025).

| Recent Ex-Dividend Dates | Distribution / Share |

"Next expected" is estimated from HOOW's recent payment rhythm — the fund announces exact dates shortly before each payout, and the data feed can lag a few days. You must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout; the cash typically arrives days later. See every fund's upcoming date on the live dividend calendar.
A real total-return estimate, assuming every payout was reinvested — including what happened to the share price. Before taxes and fees. Past performance does not predict the future.
Robinhood's stock is itself a bet on retail-trading mania — revenue rises when markets get wild — and HOOW amplifies that bet to 1.2x while paying out weekly. There's no option-selling here: the distribution is essentially a scheduled withdrawal from a leveraged position. Great weeks produce fat checks and a rising NAV; bad weeks produce thin checks and amplified losses; choppy sideways stretches quietly cost extra through leverage-reset decay.
In its first year HOOW has distributed at an enormous pace (roughly $32/share in 2025's partial year on a ~$28 fund), which is the leverage talking, not free money. Judge it strictly against just owning HOOD — the total-return backtest above does exactly that math with real prices.

When Is HOOW's Next Ex-Dividend Date?
HOOW pays weekly — typically going ex-dividend on Mondays. The exact date of each payout is announced by the fund only shortly beforehand, so no site can promise the next date — but the live schedule box above shows the most recent ex-dividend date and the expected window for the next one, computed from HOOW's actual payment rhythm. Remember: you must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout.
HOOW's Record: The Leveraged Weekly-Pay Frontier
HOOW — the Roundhill HOOD WeeklyPay ETF — arrived in mid-2025 as part of the WeeklyPay family's expansion, and promptly demonstrated what 1.2x leverage on a volatile brokerage stock looks like as a payout stream: roughly $32 per share distributed in its first half-year, with individual weeks ranging from two dimes to six. The chart above is that whole wild ride.
The Machinery: Swaps and a Schedule
HOOW's swaps target 1.2 times HOOD's calendar-week return; the weekly distribution is carved from whatever that produces. It keeps rallies (amplified) — the feature option-income funds surrender — and keeps crashes (amplified) too, with weekly leverage resets grinding away value in choppy markets. The honest comparison isn't against income funds at all; it's against simply owning Robinhood stock with a margin loan and selling a slice every Monday.
Who This Is Actually For
A Robinhood bull who wants amplified exposure and a weekly cash drip, with eyes open about return-of-capital tax character and leverage decay (the fine print). For the same wrapper on a different stock, see PLTW. Next expected date on the live calendar.
