Empire Media Network

What Empire Media Network does

Empire Media Network LTD. is a privately held Israeli online publishing company founded in 2011 and headquartered in Ramat Gan, Israel. It operates a multi-brand portfolio of consumer-facing financial and health information websites and mobile applications: FX Empire (a global financial news portal launched in 2011 covering market news, analysis, streaming quotes and charts, technical data, and reviews of CFD/stock brokers and crypto exchanges and wallets), Coinz (a cryptocurrency data platform offering market capitalization, price history, charts, news, forecasts, and exchange reviews), and LeafReport (a CBD-focused resource featuring evidence-backed content, unbiased company reviews, a searchable product database with thousands of items, buying guides, and market reports). The company also distributes its flagship FX Empire product as a native mobile application on iOS App Store and Google Play.

The underlying technology stack includes Python-based AI/ML applications targeted at financial products, vector databases and Elasticsearch for data management, LLM API integrations with OpenAI, Claude, and Hugging Face, Docker containerization, and CI/CD pipeline infrastructure (Jenkins, GitLab CI, CircleCI). The company has reached tens of millions of users since inception, makes its international websites available in up to 15 languages, and maintains editorial teams across 4 continents. Distribution is direct-to-consumer through owned digital properties and app stores, with go-to-market executed primarily via organic content marketing, SEO, and social media engagement rather than enterprise sales motions.

The business model is built on three revenue streams: (1) affiliate and referral commissions from review sections covering CFD/stock brokers and crypto exchanges/wallets; (2) advertising and sponsorships across its financial and health properties; and (3) data and content licensing partnerships with leading market data vendors. Consumer-facing content, news, reviews, and market data are offered free of charge, with no publicly disclosed consumer pricing. The company is bootstrapped with no disclosed external funding, parent company, or institutional investors, and operates with an 11-50 employee headcount while actively hiring for sales and social media roles to support further growth.
