Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]	'
GENERAL	'
	GENERAL
	Organization
	Euronet Worldwide, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”or “Euronet”) was established as a Delaware corporation on December 13, 1997 and succeeded Euronet Holding N.V. as the group holding company, which was founded and established in 1994. Euronet is a leading electronic payments provider. Euronet offers payment and transaction processing and distribution solutions to financial institutions, retailers, service providers and individual consumers. Euronet's primary product offerings include comprehensive automated teller machine (“ATM”), point-of-sale (“POS”), card outsourcing, card issuing and merchant acquiring services; electronic distribution of prepaid mobile airtime and other electronic payment products; and global consumer money transfer services.
	Basis of Presentation
	The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared from the records of the Company, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, such unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal interim closing procedures) necessary to present fairly on a consolidated basis the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2014, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2013, including the notes thereto, set forth in the Company’s 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
	Use of Estimates
	The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2014.
	Seasonality
	Euronet’s EFT Processing segment and epay segment are significantly impacted by seasonality during the fourth quarter and first quarter of each year due to higher transaction levels during the holiday season and lower levels following the holiday season. Additionally, mostly in Europe, the EFT Processing business experiences its heaviest demand for dynamic currency conversion services during the third quarter of the fiscal year, coinciding with the tourist season. Seasonality in the money transfer segment varies by regions of the world. In most markets, Euronet usually experiences increased demand for money transfer services from the month of May through the fourth quarter of each year, coinciding with the increase in worker migration patterns and various holidays, and Euronet usually experiences its lowest transaction levels during the first quarter of each year.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND PRACTICES	'
	RECENTLY ISSUED AND ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
	In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists ("ASU 2013-11"). The amendments in ASU 2013-11 provide guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The Company adopted ASU 2013-11 as of January 1, 2014, and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

	Earnings Per Share
	Basic earnings per share has been computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the respective period. Diluted earnings per share has been computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding during the respective period, after adjusting for the potential dilution of options to purchase the Company's common stock and assumed vesting of restricted stock. The following table provides the computation of diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding:
		Three Months Ended
		March 31,
		2014	2013
	Computation of diluted weighted average shares outstanding:
	Basic weighted average shares outstanding	50,788,219	49,504,712
	Incremental shares from assumed exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock	1,975,431	1,115,725
	Diluted weighted average shares outstanding	52,763,650	50,620,437
	The table includes the impact of all stock options and restricted stock that are dilutive to the Company’s weighted average common shares outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. The calculation of diluted earnings per share excludes stock options or shares of restricted stock that are anti-dilutive to the Company’s weighted average common shares outstanding of approximately 763,000 and 1,890,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss
	Accumulated other comprehensive loss consists entirely of foreign currency translation adjustments. The Company recorded a foreign currency translation gain of $3.2 million and translation loss of $17.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. There were no reclassifications of foreign currency translation into the Consolidated Statements of Income for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

	ACQUISITIONS
	On March 7, 2014, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with the selling shareholders of all of the capital stock of EIM (FX) Limited and TBK (FM) Limited, each United Kingdom limited companies, which primarily operate under the trading names HiFX or HiFM. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the selling shareholders will receive at closing an aggregate amount of purchase consideration of £145 million in cash and Euronet common stock. The number of shares of Euronet common stock to be issued will be based on the average closing price of Euronet common stock over the twenty trading-day period before closing and the average U.S. dollar to pounds sterling exchange rate over the five trading-day period before closing. Based on the March 31, 2014 exchange rate, the purchase consideration would be comprised of $184.5 million in cash and $56.5 million of Euronet common stock. HiFX offers account-to-account international payment services to high-income individuals and small-to-medium sized businesses, complementing Euronet’s existing consumer-to-consumer money transfer business. HiFX has an innovative multi-channel platform which allows customers to make transfers, track payments and manage their international payment activity online or through a customer service representative.
	The Purchase Agreement contains customary closing conditions, including certain regulatory approvals, and is currently expected to close during the second quarter of 2014.

	Estimated amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives, before income taxes, as of March 31, 2014, is expected to total $13.4 million for the remainder of 2014, $13.0 million for 2015, $11.4 million for 2016, $9.6 million for 2017, $7.2 million for 2018 and $6.3 million for 2019.
	The Company’s annual goodwill impairment test is performed during the fourth quarter of its fiscal year. The annual impairment test for the year ended December 31, 2013 resulted in the Company recording a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $18.4 million during the fourth quarter of 2013 with respect to certain reporting units included in the Company's epay segment.
	Determining the fair value of reporting units requires significant management judgment in estimating future cash flows and assessing potential market and economic conditions. It is reasonably possible that the Company’s operations will not perform as expected, or that the estimates or assumptions included in the 2013 annual impairment test could change, which may result in the Company recording additional material non-cash impairment charges during the year in which these changes take place.

	As of March 31, 2014, the Company had a $480 million senior secured credit facility (the "Credit Facility") consisting of a $400 million revolving credit facility and an $80 million term loan (which has been reduced to $66 million through principal amortization payments) ("Term Loan A").
	Interest on borrowings under the revolving credit facility and Term Loan A vary based upon the Company's consolidated total leverage ratio, as defined in the Company's Amended and Restated Credit Agreement ("Credit Agreement"), and during the first quarter of fiscal 2014 was based on a margin over London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or a margin over a base rate, as selected by the Company, with the applicable margin ranging from 1.5% to 2.5% for LIBOR loans or 0.5% to 1.5% for base rate loans. Accordingly, the weighted average interest rate for borrowings outstanding under the Company's revolving credit facility and Term Loan A was 1.77% and 1.65%, respectively, as of March 31, 2014.
	On April 9, 2014, the Company amended and restated the Credit Agreement to, among other things, (i) increase the amount of Term Loan A from $66 million to $75 million, (ii) increase the aggregate credit commitments under the revolving credit facility from $400 million to $600 million, (iii) reduce the margin over the LIBOR rate and base rate by 12.5 basis points, and (iv) extend the expiration date of the Credit Agreement from August 18, 2016 to April 9, 2019.

	DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
	As of March 31, 2014, the Company had foreign currency forward contracts outstanding with a notional value of $136 million, primarily in Australian dollars, British pounds, euros and Mexican pesos, which were not designated as hedges and had a weighted average remaining maturity of two days. Although the Company enters into foreign currency contracts to offset foreign currency exposure related to the notional value of money transfer transactions collected in currencies other than the U.S. dollar and, on occasion, short-term loans payable in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, they are not designated as hedges under ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. This is mainly due to the relatively short duration of the contracts, typically one to 14 days, and the frequency with which the Company enters into them. Due to the short duration of the contracts and the Company’s credit profile, the Company is generally not required to post collateral with respect to its foreign currency forward contracts. The Company's derivative contracts are executed with counterparties governed by an International Swaps and Derivatives Association agreement that includes standard netting arrangements; therefore, asset and liability positions from forward contracts and all other foreign exchange transactions with the same counterparty are net settled upon maturity.
	The required tabular disclosures for derivative instruments are as follows:

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value measurements used in the consolidated financial statements are based upon the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

•

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

•

Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

•

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs in which little or no market activity exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing.

The following table details financial assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis:

Other Fair Value Disclosures

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current obligations approximate their fair values because of the relatively short-term maturities of these financial instruments. The carrying values of the Company’s long-term debt, including the current portion, approximate fair value because interest is primarily based on LIBOR, which reset at various intervals of less than one year.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]	'
INCOME TAXES	'
	INCOME TAXES
	The Company's effective income tax rates were 26.4% and 20.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was lower than the applicable statutory tax rate of 35% primarily because of the Company's U.S. income tax positions. The Company does not have a history of significant taxable income in the U.S., therefore, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance against its U.S. federal tax net operating loss carryforwards. Accordingly, in instances when the Company's U.S. legal entities generate pre-tax book income, no income tax expense is recognized to the extent there are net operating loss carryforwards to offset pre-tax book income.

	COMMITMENTS
	As of March 31, 2014, the Company had $95.4 million of stand-by letters of credit/bank guarantees issued on its behalf, of which $47.9 million are outstanding under the revolving credit facility. The remaining stand-by letters of credit/bank guarantees are collateralized by $5.2 million of cash deposits held by the respective issuing banks.
	Under certain circumstances, Euronet grants guarantees in support of obligations of subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had granted off balance sheet guarantees for cash in various ATM networks amounting to $16.3 million over the terms of the cash supply agreements and performance guarantees amounting to approximately $27.6 million over the terms of the agreements with the customers.
	Each of Euronet's subsidiaries, once they reach a certain size, is required under the Credit Agreement to provide a guarantee of all or a portion of the outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement depending upon whether the subsidiary is a domestic or foreign entity.
	From time to time, the Company enters into agreements with commercial counterparties that contain indemnification provisions, the terms of which may vary depending on the negotiated terms of each respective agreement. The amount of such potential obligations is generally not stated in the agreements. Euronet's liability under such indemnification provisions may be mitigated by relevant insurance coverage and may be subject to time and materiality limitations, monetary caps and other conditions and defenses. Such indemnification obligations include the following:
	•	In connection with contracts with financial institutions in the EFT Processing Segment, the Company is responsible for damage to ATMs and theft of ATM network cash that, generally, is not recorded on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of March 31, 2014, the balance of ATM network cash for which the Company was responsible was approximately $440 million. The Company maintains insurance policies to mitigate this exposure;
	•	In connection with contracts with financial institutions in the EFT Processing Segment, the Company is responsible for losses suffered by its customers and other parties as a result of the breach of its computer systems, including in particular, losses arising from fraudulent transactions made using information stolen through its processing systems. The Company maintains insurance policies to mitigate this exposure;
	•	In connection with the license of proprietary systems to customers, the Company provides certain warranties and infringement indemnities to the licensee, which generally warrant that such systems do not infringe on intellectual property owned by third parties and that the systems will perform in accordance with their specifications;
	•	Euronet has entered into purchase and service agreements with vendors and consulting agreements with providers of consulting services, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to indemnify certain of such vendors and consultants, respectively, against third-party claims arising from the Company’s use of the vendor’s product or the services of the vendor or consultant;
	•	In connection with acquisitions and dispositions of subsidiaries, operating units and business assets, the Company has entered into agreements containing indemnification provisions, which can be generally described as follows: (i) in connection with acquisitions of operating units or assets made by Euronet, the Company has agreed to indemnify the seller against third-party claims made against the seller relating to the operating unit or asset and arising after the closing of the transaction, and (ii) in connection with dispositions made by Euronet, Euronet has agreed to indemnify the buyer against damages incurred by the buyer due to the buyer’s reliance on representations and warranties relating to the subject subsidiary, operating unit or business assets in the disposition agreement if such representations or warranties were untrue when made; and
	•	Euronet has entered into agreements with certain third parties, including banks that provide fiduciary and other services to Euronet or to the Company’s benefit plans. Under such agreements, the Company has agreed to indemnify such service providers for third-party claims relating to carrying out their respective duties under such agreements.
	The Company is also required to meet minimum capitalization and cash requirements of various regulatory authorities in the jurisdictions in which the Company has money transfer operations. The Company has obtained surety bonds in compliance with money transfer licensing requirements of the applicable governmental authorities.
	To date, the Company is not aware of any significant claims made by the indemnified parties or third parties to guarantee agreements with the Company and, accordingly, no liabilities were recorded as of March 31, 2014 or December 31, 2013.

	Contingencies
	Unclaimed property compliance - In September 2013, the Company entered into a voluntary disclosure agreement with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to determine compliance with Delaware unclaimed property laws. Types of property under examination include, but are not limited to, payroll checks, accounts payable checks and accounts receivable credits for the period 1996 through 2007. The total amount of exposure of this contingency is dependent upon the manner in which the State of Delaware applies its unclaimed property laws. The Company does not currently expect the outcome of this matter to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
	Legal Proceedings
	During 2012, the Company was served with a class action lawsuit filed by a former employee alleging wage and hour violations relating to meal and rest period requirements. The Company has reached an agreement to settle this lawsuit for an immaterial amount and completed the settlement in 2014.
	From time to time, the Company is a party to legal or regulatory proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. Currently, there are no legal proceeding or regulatory findings that management believes, either individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company records a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. These provisions are reviewed at least quarterly and adjusted to reflect the impacts of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other information and events pertaining to a particular case.

The amendments in ASU 2013-11 provide guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The Company adopted ASU 2013-11 as of January 1, 2014, and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, cash flows or financial position.
