How do we rank the best Darts betting sites?  

When it comes to picking out the best darts betting sites, we have taken a number of factors into consideration. Many UK punters may only end up betting on the World Darts Championship at the end of the year, however, others may get involved most weekends. As a result, we have picked out the darts betting sites which offer the best experience for both casual and regular players.

When it comes ranking our darts betting sites, we look more favourably on sites which:  

  • Offered a generous welcome bonus  
  • Had ample bonuses and promotions for existing players  
  • Priced up darts betting markets early  
  • Offered competitive odds throughout the tournament  
  • Had a user-friendly interface 
  • Boast additional or unique darts betting markets  

When conducting our research, we also used both the desktop site and the mobile app to ensure that we were getting the best overall experience. Life can be extremely busy and we were looking for sites which made it quick and easy to place bets on upcoming tournaments. In an ideal world, we would have been able to place a bet on darts within 3-4 clicks.

Although our ranking is darts-centric, we also looked favourably upon any betting site which offered good all-round coverage of upcoming sporting events and made it easy for us to deposit and withdraw from betting accounts.

Darts Bonuses and Promotions

Bonuses and PromotionsWhen it comes to bonuses and promotions, online darts betting sites have plenty of them. Although the majority of bookmakers will reward new players, there are still a number of offers available for existing users. Betting sites in the UK and betting apps such as BetUK and Kwiff have a number of offers available and these can be used in conjunction with the majority of darts betting markets. These include:

  • Price Boosts / Enhanced Accumulators - Some darts betting sites such as Star Sports routinely offer the best betting odds and this can be verified by using a price comparison tool. Other bookmakers will reward their players with regular boosts and enhancements which will increase player returns. This also helps to bring them in line with other bookmakers.
  • Bet and Get - This is a hugely popular offer and allows players to collect a free bet when they meet the staking criteria. Typically, these offers will take the form of Bet £10 on any darts market and Get a free £5 bet, however, it is likely to vary between bookmakers.
  • Rewards Club / Loyalty - Many darts betting sites have recently launched loyalty schemes which tend to reward players who stake a set amount each week. For example, if you bet £10 on accumulators within a seven day period, you’ll receive a £5 free bet to use on whatever you want. You may have to ‘opt in’ to ensure that you are able to take full advantage.
  • % of Your Losses Back - This is a great way to help take away the disappointment of a bad run of form. These offers will give players a set percentage of their weekly spend back if they have failed to find a winner. This may be done on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. 

DARTS BETTING MARKETS & BETS

Darts is the perfect game for a little betting action. Every game comes with a variety of different wagering options to help you hit the target every time.

  • Over/Under: Darts has loads of over/under betting opportunities. You can bet on the total number of sets in a match, how many 180s there will be and what the highest checkout will be.
  • Prop Bets: Darts proposition bets cover many betting opportunities. These include will there be a nine-dart finish and will there be a 180 in the first leg?
  • Outright: The outright bet required you to predict which player will win a tournament.
  • Match Betting: Bet on which player you think will win a match.
  • Handicap: This levels the playing field by giving one player a head start. For example, if player ‘A’ is the favourite, player ‘B’ could get a 1.5 game head start. If Player ‘A’ wins by a single game, player ‘B’ would be the winner with an advantage of 0.5.
  • Correct Score: This works on the same principle as in other sports – predict what the final score of a match will be.
  • Accumulators: Also known as multiples, this bet allows you to combine several selections for the chance to secure a bumper return.

Darts Betting Tips and Strategies  

Darts is an immersive and tremendously fun sport to watch, however, it isn’t always the easiest to make money on. Plenty of favourites do tend to prevail, particularly at major tournaments, however, the bookmakers have often priced them up prohibitively as a result.

In order to improve your darts betting returns, there are a number of tips and strategies that can be followed:  

Remember that Darts Players are Human 

This may sound a little daft in isolation, however, it’s important to remember that their performances can be affected by a number of aspects. If the player is competing in their home town or city, this will naturally give them a lift. A partisan crowd cheering their every throw will surely increase confidence whereas the chance to stay in the comfortable surroundings of their own home may also spark an improvement in performance.  

Furthermore, it’s important to remember that players may be heavily affected by a tiring tour itinerary, and it’s important to note any player who recently become a parent. These little bundles of joy can affect performances whether it be caused by a lack of sleep or the stress of having an extra mouth to feed.

Use Performance Data 

Punters have access to more data and statistics than ever before these days and this can be used to your advantage. You can use this to either assess performances and work out whether a player is at the top of their game or whether they were a little fortunate. You can also use this information if you’re betting darts in order to assess head-to-head records and other quirks such as how each player performs at a particular venue/in a particular country. 

Consider as many Different Betting Markets as Possible  

Some bettors simply stick to outright betting or perhaps they tend to create an accumulator consisting solely of match winners. This is absolutely fine. However, with many darts betting sites offering a wide range of markets, it seems a shame to not even consider them. If you are seeking value or you foresee a tight and tense match-up, these tend to provide a terrific alternative and may enable you to turn a small profit.

Darts Live Betting

Darts is a terrific sport to watch and the majority of tournaments tend to be televised. However, the best darts UK sites also offer live streaming capabilities and the chance to follow the latest statistics using their in-play site.

Darts is a fast-paced game and the momentum can change quickly hence why it has become hugely popular with in-play bettors over the last few years. There are 30+ live markets available with the majority of online bookmakers and these include ‘Next Leg Winner’, ‘Highest Checkout in Leg 3’.

Live bets may take an extra few seconds to process and it’s worth noting that the odds may change at any stage. 

Mobile Compatibility and Apps

Some punters may prefer to stick to the tried and trusted laptop or desktop computer, however, it’s equally as quick and easy to log into a mobile app and place a darts wager whilst on the move. 

The majority of mobile betting apps including BetUK and Star Sports are identical to their desktop equivalent and allow punters to deposit and withdraw from their account as well as take advantage of the various bonuses and promotions.

Mobile betting apps make it extremely straightforward to follow all of the action and place in-play bets on all PDC events, including the iconic World Championship. 

Darts Betting Odds 

Betting OddsDarts betting odds are created by the bookmakers and these are designed to reflect the probability of an outcome. A player who is priced up at Even Money is said to have a 50% chance of winning and punters must then decide whether this is good value.

The bigger the odds, the less chance of an event occurring. However, it should be noted that darts isn’t exempt from shocks and big name players do occasionally suffer from early exits.

Odds may fluctuate and this is likely to be affected by the number of bets being placed and will often fall in line with other bookmakers too. The odds are likely to shorten on a well-supported player and a number of outside factors such as reports of an injury or the reaction to a pre-tournament draw may also impact the market.

Live darts betting odds are compiled in the same way, however, these will be altered by the action at the oche. These fluctuations do allow some punters to hold their nerve and benefit from a sudden shift in momentum.

Banking and Withdrawals  

In order to start betting on darts, you’ll need to fund your account. Thankfully, most online betting sites make it simple to make a deposit or withdrawal. There are a number of methods which are available, although it’s worth checking which of these are offered by your chosen darts betting site. It’s worth noting that some deposit methods (such as ewallets) cannot be used in conjunction with welcome bonuses or promotions.

Payment methods include:  

  • Debit Cards 
  • Apple Pay 
  • Google Pay 
  • PayPal 
  • Skrill 
  • PaySafeCard 
  • Neteller 

About Darts  

Darts may be a professional sport, yet it also remains a traditional pub game. It is extremely popular in the UK and Ireland, however, its popularity has also grown in Australia, Belgium, Netherlands and Germany.

Professional darts began in the 1970s with the BDO (British Darts Organisation) forming in 1973. The sports popularity grew throughout the 1980s and the early 1990s before a group of players broke away to form the PDC (Professional Darts Corporation). The PDC are now responsible for the majority of the high-profile tournaments such as the World Darts Championship and the World Matchplay.

With the collapse of the BDO in 2020, the PDC are now solely responsible for the majority of the professional tournaments on the calendar.

Betting on the World Darts Championship remains extremely popular, however, there are a number of other standout events on the calendar including the UK Open, Premier League of Darts, Grand Slam of Darts and the World Matchplay.

There have been a number of iconic players who have enjoyed tremendous success over the last few decades. Players such as Phil Taylor, Eric Bristow and Michael Van Gerwen are household names in the sport and have accumulated legions of dedicated fans over the years.
