A Media Planner's View: Where to Place
Use Caixin when you want investors, senior managers and finance professionals in China who read serious business news. Website and app placements give scale and targeting, while the newsletters and weekly magazine suit premium and considered-purchase messaging.
For campaigns aimed at international investors watching China, Caixin Global in English is the natural companion to the Chinese-language site. We plan both from a single brief and align timing with the economic calendar.
Masscom Expert Recommendation: Why Advertise Here
Caixin is a reporting-led business brand, and its readers pay to follow China's economy, finance and policy. For investors, wealth managers, luxury and premium brands, that is a better-qualified audience than a broad news portal. We use it when the goal is to be seen by people who make or influence financial and business decisions.
How we would use it. We would combine website and app placements with the newsletters and the weekly magazine, and time bursts around major economic and financial events. Creative is adapted into Simplified Chinese for caixin.com and kept in English for Caixin Global.
Our guidance. We decide the split between Chinese-language and English-language placements from your target reader and objective, and handle all creative adaptation as part of the plan.
How We Would Run Your Caixin Campaign
We start with the audience you need to reach, whether that is investors, business owners or high-net-worth families, and work back to the title, section and edition that put you in front of them. The schedule follows from that.
The rest is ours to handle: creative adapted for Simplified Chinese, the insertion booked and proofed, and reporting once the advertisement has run.
Where Can Your Brand Appear in Caixin?
- Website. Display and branded placements on caixin.com and caixinglobal.com.
- App. Placements within the Caixin app for mobile readers.

- Weekly magazine. Premium print and digital magazine placements for considered-purchase brands.
