Red-envelope amounts are even, so good things come in pairs. Endings in 6 or 8 are the most welcome — 3,600 and 6,600 are always safe.
Avoid 4 anywhere in the number, including endings like 2,400 or 3,400.
Close friend, hotel: alone NT$3,600–6,600, with a guest NT$6,600–10,000. Higher, not exactly twice.
Friend: alone at a restaurant NT$2,000–2,600, alone at a hotel NT$2,600–3,600.
The north tends to run one tier higher. Friend, alone, hotel: north NT$2,600–3,600, central-south NT$2,000–2,600.
Every amount in the calculator is compiled from published sources, and each figure shows its own source next to it. These are the publishers behind them.
