How the Roll Score™ works
The Roll Score is Let's Roll's ranking metric, from 0 to 100. It's 80% a confidence-weighted Google rating (using a Wilson score, so a 5.0 from 3 reviews can't outrank a 4.8 from 600) and 20% review volume. As verified Let's Roll member reviews and check-ins grow, they'll factor in too. Rankings recompute regularly — last updated June 2026.
