PokerChips.io popularized the idea of a virtual chip remote for real card games: create a game, share a link, bet from your phone. PokerChip.live starts from the same idea and adds the rest of the night — blinds, pots, side pots, buy-ins, cash-outs, automatic settlement, and stats for recurring groups. Both run free in the browser.
Same link-and-play simplicity
Adds blinds, side pots, and settlement
Stats and clubs for recurring games
Both are free browser tools for tracking chips while you play with real cards. Details reflect public product information at the time of writing.

Every chip tracker reduces to these. A tool that handles three of them well is still a tool your group will stop using.

There is no settlement to calculate
A plain chip remote works for the first hour. The friction shows up later: who posted the blind, how a three-way all-in splits, who rebought, and who owes whom at the end. Those are exactly the moments a fuller tracker handles automatically.
Create a room, share the link or QR code, and everyone bets from their phone while real cards hit the table. No downloads and no accounts required to join a game.
PokerChip.live records every buy-in and final stack, so settlement is a screen, not an argument. Recurring groups get standings and stats across game nights.
Hold a stack per player, move money when a bet happens, survive a phone locking, and produce a settlement at the end. That is a short list, and the tools that fall down usually fall down on the third and fourth items rather than the first two — a tracker that loses state when the screen sleeps is unusable at a table where hands take four hours.
Requiring a sign-up from a guest is asking somebody who came over to play cards to create a password. It is the single most reliable way to end up with a tool that only the host uses. A join link or a QR code that lands a player directly in a seat removes the step that fails.
Anyone can track a stack. The value shows up at the end, when four people who each bought in twice need to work out the shortest set of payments that settles everything. Doing that by hand produces more transfers than necessary and at least one argument; doing it from a recorded ledger produces a list.
A tracker that forgets the game when you close it is a calculator. A group that plays regularly wants to know who is up over a season, who has played most, and whether last night was unusual — and all of that requires the sessions to be linked rather than isolated.
Live stacks in the browser with no install, buy-ins and cash-outs recorded as they happen, an automatic settlement, and a history that persists across sessions and across a club. Free to run a game; the paid tier is about longer history, exports and removing ads, not about whether the game works.
Run your usual game and record it. At the end, check three things: did everybody get in without help, did the ledger balance, and did anybody have to count chips. If all three are yes, no and no, the switch has already happened.
FAQ
01
Yes. Creating rooms, joining, chip tracking, and settlement are free. An optional Pro tier removes ads and adds advanced analytics.
02
No. Like pokerchips.io, it is built for in-person games where you deal real cards — the app replaces only the chips.
03
No. Players join from a browser link or QR code on any phone, tablet, or laptop.
04
Yes. Blinds rotate automatically and all-in side pots are calculated for you — the two things most chip remotes leave to mental math.
05
PokerChip.live compares final stacks against buy-ins and produces final standings you can share with the group.
06
Anything that holds live stacks, lets guests join without an account, and produces the settlement at the end. Those three are what separate the tools; the rest of the feature lists overlap.
07
They should not have to. Requiring a guest to sign up is the most reliable way to end up with a tool only the host uses.
08
That is worth checking specifically. A tracker that forgets the game when you close it cannot answer who is up over a season.
09
Running a game is free. The paid tier covers longer history, exports and no ads — not whether the game itself works.
010
About a minute. Create a room, set the buy-in, share the link; players take a seat under their own names as they arrive.
011
Yes, as separate rooms. A group large enough to need two tables is exactly the case a physical chip set handles worst.
012
Yes — it is a web page. Some hosts keep the table view open on a laptop where everyone can see it while players use their phones.
