Frequently asked questions
How is the lucky score calculated?
Each digit carries a traditional weight (8 = +3, 6 and 9 = +2, 4 = −3…). We add bonuses for lucky patterns (168, 888, ending in 8, no 4s) and subtract for unlucky ones (14, 250, 748, ending in 4), then scale to 0–100.
Do lucky numbers really sell for more?
Yes. Hong Kong’s plate “W” sold for HK$26M in 2021, and Chinese phone and numeric-domain markets price 8s and 6s at a premium. See the Economy of Luck.
Can letters be scored?
Letters in plates or domains are ignored; only digits are scored.
Can you find me a better number?
Yes — the Concierge connects you with vetted sellers of premium phone numbers, plates and domains.
