Frequently asked questions
Is this really free?
Yes. The BASIC plan is free forever — no trial that expires, no credit card, no ads. You can create and run darts tournaments of up to 10 players as often as you like. Only bigger events or pro formats require a paid plan.
Where's the catch?
There's no hidden catch. SmartDart is funded by PRO and PREMIUM for bigger tournaments, all formats and clubs, plus LEAGUE for full league management. If you only run small tournaments up to 10 players, you never pay anything.
Does BASIC stay free forever?
Yes, BASIC is and stays free — no expiry date, no automatic switch to a paid plan. You only upgrade actively if you need more players or league features.
Do my players need an account?
No. Only you as the organiser create a free account (email is enough). Your players scan the QR code and score on their own phone — no signup, no app.
What are the limits of the free plan?
BASIC includes up to 10 players, 2 boards at once, 1 active tournament, knockout, round-robin and Groups + Knockout. Projector view and QR join are included. PRO expands size and parallel events; PREMIUM unlocks all 9 tournament formats including League and Champions League. Full league management is part of the League plan.
What do I get compared to paid dart software?
The entire tournament core: fixture generator, knockout and round-robin brackets, multi-board scoring, projector and shareable results — free and without installation. Many classic dart programs charge setup fees or annual contracts; with SmartDart you start instantly in the browser.
Do I have to download anything?
No. SmartDart runs entirely in the browser — on iPhone, Android, tablet and laptop. No app store, no installation.
