Darts Matched Betting
Matched betting has demystified sports wagering by turning promotional offers into near-guaranteed profits—and darts, with its intense match-ups and frequent markets, is a perfect candidate.
At Oddsmart, we’ve developed a comprehensive suite of darts-focused tools and calculators to guide you from spotting the most lucrative bookmaker promotions to laying your bets automatically on exchanges.
Whether you’re backing wayward arrows in a Premier League fixture, predicting a nine-dart finish in the World Championship, or capitalising on player specials in the UK Open, Oddsmart equips you to extract maximum value from every darts market.
Why Matched Betting Works for Darts
Darts offers a rich variety of markets—match winner, handicap, over/under legs, 180s scored, highest checkout, even nine-dart finish specials—across major televised tournaments and smaller floor events.
Bookmakers continually launch promotions to capture the attention of punters, such as:
- Enhanced odds on high checkouts or 180s
- Money-back if match goes to sudden death leg
- Free bets for first-round wins in the World Matchplay
- Refunds if a player throws a nine-dart finish
Matched betting in darts capitalises on these by placing matched back and lay bets:
- Back bet with the bookmaker (for example, £10 on Gerwyn Price to win at odds of 2.2).
- Lay bet on an exchange (lay against Price with the exact stake that locks in profit regardless of outcome).
Your qualifying bets secure the free bet or refund as profit, and darts’ packed calendar—from the PDC Circuit to televised majors—means there’s always a next opportunity.

OddsFinder presents a ranked list of the best darts opportunities.
No need to manually compare multiple sites—simply choose the promotion with the biggest potential yield and let OddsFinder guide your next move.
Calculating Your Darts Stakes Precisely
Accurate staking is vital to lock in your profit. Oddsmart’s suite of calculators removes guesswork:
Matched Betting Calculator
Input your back stake, back odds, lay odds and exchange commission to see your exact lay stake.
Specials Calculator
Distributes stakes across novelty markets—nine-dart finishes, highest checkout, most 180s—to maximise free-bet exploitation.
By selecting “Darts” as your sport and picking the appropriate market, the calculators ensure you never mis-stake and erode your profits.
Automating Lay Bets on Betting Exchange
Darts markets can swing rapidly, especially in-play when momentum shifts after a high checkout or pivotal break of throw.
Our software links directly with the Smarkets sports betting exchange to automate your lay bets:
- Select your matched opportunity in OddsFinder.
- Click “Lay”, choose your exchange and set your maximum acceptable odds.
- Confirm, and Oddsmart’s Bet Matcher places your lay bet almost instantly—even as the match progresses leg by leg.
For multi-leg free bets or “first-to-score” specials, the Multi-Leg Matcher can hedge every component of your bet in one go.
You focus on watching the darts; we handle the execution.
Tracking Your Darts Profits with Profit Tracker
Keeping track of multiple promotions over the darts season can be challenging. Oddsmart’s Profit Tracker consolidates:
- Net profit per bookmaker.
- ROI over time
- Performance by market type
- Strategy breakdown
Interactive dashboards reveal which competitions and tools deliver the best returns.
You might discover that over/under legs in European Tour events outperform sudden-death leg refunds in majors—allowing you to fine-tune your approach for maximum gains.
