The extension is called Fractions and was created by Can Durmus. He is a web developer who created this super handy tool.

Sometimes I write about Medium Partner Program and share the earnings.

I used to share the $ amount from the last day of the month. But it is not precise (based on Medium metrics), as it does not include the last day of the month.

With this Chrome extension, you get the exact number month by month, daily, and much more.

And most importantly, you get the lifetime earnings.

I joined Medium Partner Program in January 2022. But I started writing regularly here only by the end of June last year. So I made almost $28,000 in less than a year.

Fractions Chrome extensions also provide the following valuable data:

  • Monthly earnings
  • Daily total member reading time
  • Yesterday´s total earnings
  • Yesterday´s top-earning post
  • Estimated payments by the end of the month
  • Daily average earnings
  • Percent difference from the previous month
  • This month's top-earning post
  • And more

So this is much more than from the Medium Partner Program default dashboard. Therefore Fractions extension is a great and necessary addition if you want to have a detailed insight into your Medium earning performance.
