Chinafy your apps + Lessons you can steal from China
summary
Advice: the Chinese market requires concrete fixes not marketing — remove foreign CDN calls behind the Great Firewall, add WeChat mini programs and Alipay/WeChat Pay SDKs, host in a China cloud (Alibaba or Azure “Mooncake”) and localize language and UX properly. Expect mobile-first usage ~75% normally and ~90% on Singles Day $32B peak; use QR codes, sesame credit integration and gamified flows. Build a mini-app inside WeChat, test in China, and partner locally — those steps actually win users.
