Product Details

Lucky money red packets are the heart of Chinese New Year. The red color wards off evil and brings fortune, and the packet itself is a canvas for blessings: zodiac animals for the coming year, the fu 福 character, and wishes for prosperity and health.

At Aorai Pack, we print CNY lucky money packets by the millions each season. For the coming Year of the Goat 2027, the winning formula is a clean zodiac foil on quality red stock — a design that feels current for the year, not a generic leftover from past seasons.

Product Details

1. Lucky Money Design Options

CNY packets range from classic solid red with a gold fu 福 to zodiac-illustrated and pastel designs popular with younger givers. We support two-sided printing, window-cut pockets to show the note, and layered foil for a rich, high-end finish. For corporate CNY gifting, we print company logos and festive well-wishes for clients and staff.

2. Usage Scenes

✅ Family Lucky Money: The classic packets elders give to children and unmarried relatives during CNY.

✅ Corporate CNY Gifting: Branded packets for clients, employee bonuses and seasonal campaigns.

✅ Retail & E-commerce: Pre-designed seasonal packets sold in shops and online in festive sets.

✅ Community & Events: Bulk packets for temples, associations and Spring Festival events.

3. Factory & Qualification Advantages

We are the printer with a 37-year ISO 9001 and FSC-certified factory. Our in-house prepress team checks files before they reach the press, preventing expensive reprints on foil-heavy seasonal jobs. For CNY this matters — the season is short and production windows fill fast.
