At a glance
We're Moneydarts, so we're not neutral — but we've kept this to what each platform says on its own site, with sources below.
| Platform | Video | Hardware | Finding opponents | Stakes / prizes | Price |

| Moneydarts | Required in every match | Webcam or phone | Quick play matchmaking, open lobby, tournaments, private invites | Play-credit stakes and prize pots (no real money) | Free |
| WDA (webcamdarts.com) | Required (webcam with microphone) | Webcam with microphone | Chat lobby, ranked modes and ladders, leagues, scheduled tournaments | No money prizes mentioned | Free; optional £10/year membership |
| ELO Darts | Required — webcam-verified matches | Webcam | Ranking-based matchmaking, daily automated tournaments | Not mentioned | Free to register |

Also worth knowing: Scolia makes hardware auto-scorers with online play and tournaments, and Target's Virt camera works with DartCounter. They're not listed in the table because they're hardware first.
How to choose
You want to see every dart
Pick a platform where video is part of every match, not an option. On scoring apps with optional video, many games are played on trust. WDA, ELO Darts and Moneydarts require a camera.
You want the board to score for you
Camera-based auto-scorers like Autodarts and Scolia recognise where your darts land. They can need extra hardware and a subscription for regular online play, but save you typing scores.
You want leagues and a community
WDA is built around its community, with ranked modes, ladders, leagues and weekday and weekend tournaments. Lidarts is free and open source with no ads.
You want a quick, competitive match right now
That's what Moneydarts is built for: choose a stake, get matched with a waiting player, confirm your camera in the ready check and play. Quitting counts as a forfeit and abandoned matches are closed automatically, so a match you start is a match that finishes. Stakes are play credits, never real money.
Common questions
What is the best webcam darts platform?
It depends on what you want. For a community with leagues and ladders, look at WDA. For automatic scoring, Autodarts or Scolia. For a scoring app with optional video, DartCounter or DartConnect. Moneydarts is built for quick, competitive matches where video is part of every game and there is something on the line in play credits.
Is there a free webcam darts site?
Yes. Moneydarts, WDA, ELO Darts and Lidarts are free to start. DartCounter, DartConnect and Autodarts have free tiers with limits and paid plans.
Do I need a webcam to play darts online?
Not on every platform — some scoring apps let you play on trust. If you want to see every dart your opponent throws, choose a platform where video is required in every match.
Can I play webcam darts for money?
Moneydarts uses play credits only: stakes and prize pots have no cash value. We didn't find a webcam darts platform offering real-money stakes in our research.
