ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS | NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS Mobiquity Technologies, Inc. (“Mobiquity,” “we,” “our” or “the Company”), and its operating subsidiaries, is a next generation location data intelligence company. The Company provides precise unique, at-scale location data and insights on consumer’s real-world behavior and trends for use in marketing and research. We provide one of the most accurate and scaled solutions for mobile data collection and analysis, utilizing multiple geo-location technologies. The Company is seeking to implement several new revenue streams from its data collection and analysis, including, but not limited to, Advertising, Data Licensing, Footfall Reporting, Attribution Reporting, Real Estate Planning, Financial Forecasting and Custom Research. We also are a developer of advertising and marketing technology focused on the creation, automation, and maintenance of an advertising technology operating system (or ATOS). The ATOS platform blends artificial intelligence (or AI) and machine learning (ML) based optimization technology for automatic ad serving that manages and runs digital advertising campaigns. Mobiquity Technologies, Inc. was incorporated in the State of New York and has the following subsidiaries: Schedule of subsidiaries Company Name State of Incorporation Mobiquity Networks, Inc. New York Advangelists, LLC Delaware Mobiquity Networks, Inc. Mobiquity Networks, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mobiquity Technologies, Inc., commencing operations in January 2011. Mobiquity Networks started and developed as a mobile advertising technology company focused on driving foot-traffic throughout its indoor network and has evolved and grown into a next generation data intelligence company. Mobiquity Networks, Inc. operates our data intelligence platform business. Advangelists, LLC Advangelists LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Mobiquity Technologies, Inc., acquired through a merger transaction in December 2018, and operates our ATOS platform business. Reverse Stock Split On August 7, 2023, we effected a one-for-15 reverse stock split Liquidity, Going Concern and Management’s Plans These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, for the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company had: · Net loss of $ 6,533,117 · Net cash used in operations was $ 4,395,868 Additionally, at December 31, 2023, the Company had: · Accumulated deficit of $ 217,040,339 · Stockholders’ equity of $ 2,208,328 · Working capital deficit of $ 1,278,231 We manage liquidity risk by reviewing, on an ongoing basis, our sources of liquidity and capital requirements. The Company had cash on hand of $ 528,272 The Company has incurred significant losses since its inception in 1998 and has not demonstrated an ability to generate sufficient revenues from the sales of its products and services to achieve profitable operations. There can be no assurance that profitable operations will ever be achieved, or if achieved, could be sustained on a continuing basis. In making this assessment we performed a comprehensive analysis of our current circumstances including: our financial position, our cash flows and cash usage forecasts for the year ended December 31, 2023, and our current capital structure including equity-based instruments and our obligations and debts. Without sufficient revenues from operations, if the Company does not obtain additional capital, the Company will be required to reduce the scope of its business development activities or cease operations. These factors create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these consolidated financial statements are issued, as the Company will need additional capital to meet its financial obligations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business. Management’s strategic plans include the following: · Execution of business plan focused on technology development and improvement, · Seek out equity and/or debt financing to obtain the capital required to meet the Company’s financial obligations. There is no assurance, however, that lenders and investors will continue to advance capital to the Company or that the new business operations will be profitable. · Continuing to explore and execute prospective partnering, distribution and acquisition opportunities, · Identifying unique market opportunities that represent potential positive short-term cash flow. Coronavirus (“COVID-19”) Pandemic During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company’s financial results and operations were adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company is a data location company with a specialty to drive traffic to retail stores. In the prior two (2) years, the Company suffered from the effects of the pandemic due to lack of traffic to retail stores related to mandated stay-at-home restrictions and the Company drastically curtailed its operations. The extent to which the Company’s future financial results could be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic depends on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. The pandemic also had an effect on the Company’s ability to attain new customers or retain existing customers, and to collect on its outstanding accounts receivable, resulting in an increase of its allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to its estimates or judgments or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities. These estimates may change, as new events occur, and additional information is obtained. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. During the year ended December 31, 2023, areas of the Company’s financial results and operations, other than credit losses, were not otherwise materially adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Business Segments and Concentrations The Company uses the “management approach” to identify its reportable segments. The management approach requires companies to report segment financial information consistent with information used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the basis for identifying the Company’s reportable segments. The Company manages its business as a single reporting segment. Customers in the United States accounted for 100% of our revenues. We do not have any property or equipment outside of the United States. Use of Estimates Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of Company assets and liabilities, including the allowance for credit losses, stock-based compensation, the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Risks and Uncertainties The Company operates in an industry that is subject to intense competition and changes in consumer demand. The Company’s operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial and operational risks and the potential of overall business failure. The Company has experienced, and in the future expects to continue to experience, variability in sales and net earnings. The factors expected to contribute to this variability include, among others, (i) the cyclical nature of the industry, (ii) general economic conditions in the various local markets in which the Company competes, including a potential general downturn in the economy, and (iii) the volatility of prices in connection with the Company’s service offerings. These factors, among others, make it difficult to project the Company’s operating results on a consistent basis. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company accounts for financial instruments at fair value, which as is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The valuation techniques are based on observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect readily obtainable data from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect certain market assumptions. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: · Level 1—Valuation based on quoted market prices in active markets that the Company can access for identical assets or liabilities; · Level 2—Valuation based on quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability; and · Level 3—Valuation based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, which require management’s best estimate of what market participants would use as fair value. Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair value. These financial instruments include accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and contract liabilities. At December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt approximates its carrying value based on current financing rates available to the Company. The Company does not have any other financial or non-financial assets or liabilities that would be characterized as Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 instruments. Cash and Cash Equivalents and Concentrations of Risk For purposes of presentation in the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the purchase date and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did no The Company is exposed to credit risk on its cash in the event of default by the financial institutions to the extent account balances exceed the amount insured by the FDIC, which is $250,000. At December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not experience any losses on cash balances in excess of FDIC insured limits. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to funds could have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. For fiscal 2023 and 2022, sales of our products to two customers and one customer generated approximately 73 39 Accounts Receivable Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments Accounts receivable represent customer obligations under normal trade terms and are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding customer balances. Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. Interest is not accrued on overdue accounts receivable. The Company does not require collateral. Five and six of our customers combined accounted for approximately 61 42 The Company had net accounts receivable, net, of $ 34,628 340,935 388,112 Management periodically assesses the Company’s accounts receivable and, if necessary, establishes an allowance for credit losses. The Company provides its allowance for credit losses based upon a review of the outstanding accounts receivable, historical collection information and existing economic conditions. Accounts determined to be uncollectible losses are charged to operations when that determination is made. The allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable and the related activity, for the year ended December 31, 2023, are as follows: Schedule of allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable activity Balance, December 31, 2022 $ 1,091,244 Provision for credit losses 66,666 Balance, December 31, 2023 $ 1,157,910 Bad debt expense (recovery) is recorded as a component of general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Impairment of Long-lived Assets Management evaluates the recoverability of the Company’s identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets when events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment exists, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 360-10-35-15 “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” If impairment is indicated based on a comparison of the assets’ carrying values and the undiscounted cash flows, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Expenditures for repair and maintenance which do not materially extend the useful lives of property and equipment are charged to operations. When property or equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts with the resulting gain or loss reflected in current results of operations. Goodwill The Company’s goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred for the acquisition of Advangelists, LLC in December 2018 over the fair value of the underlying identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but instead, it is tested for impairment at least annually. In the event that management determines that the value of goodwill has become impaired, the Company will record a charge in an amount equal to the excess of the reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit during the fiscal quarter in which the determination is made. The Company performs its annual impairment tests of goodwill as of December 31st of each year, or more frequently, if certain indicators are present. Goodwill is required to be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is an operating segment or one level below the operating segment level, which is referred to as a component. Management identifies its reporting units by assessing whether components (i) have discrete financial information available, (ii) engage in business activities, and (iii) whether a segment manager regularly reviews the component’s operating results. Net assets and goodwill of acquired businesses are allocated to the reporting unit associated with the acquired business based on the anticipated organizational structure of the combined entities. If two or more components are deemed economically similar, those components are aggregated into one reporting unit when performing the annual goodwill impairment review. The Company has one reporting unit as of December 31, 2023, and 2022. No Intangible Assets In December 2018, the Company acquired the majority of its intangible assets through its acquisition of Advangelists LLC, which included customer relationships and the ATOS platform technology. The Company amortizes its identifiable definite-lived intangible assets over an estimated period of 5 Capitalized Software Development Costs In accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal Use Software, the Company capitalizes certain internal-use software development costs associated with creating and enhancing internally developed software related to its platforms. Software development activities generally consist of three stages (i) the research and planning stage, (ii) the application and development stage, and (iii) the post-implementation stage. Costs incurred in the research and planning stage and in the post-implementation stage of software development, or other maintenance and development expenses that do not meet the qualification for capitalization, are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred in the application and development stage, including significant enhancements and upgrades, are capitalized. These costs include personnel and related employee benefits expenses for employees or consultants directly associated with and who devote time to software projects and external direct costs of materials obtained in developing the software. These software developments and acquired technology are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of five years upon the initial release of the software or additional features. The Company reviews the software development costs for impairment when circumstances indicate their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If the carrying value of an asset group is not recoverable, the Company recognizes an impairment loss for the excess of carrying value over the fair value in its consolidated statements of operations. See Note 3 for further details. Derivative Financial Instruments The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under FASB ASC Topic No. 480, (ASC 480), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity Derivatives and Hedging Terms of financial instruments are reviewed to determine whether or not they contain embedded derivative instruments that are required to be accounted for separately from the host contract under ASC 815 and recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivative liabilities are remeasured to reflect fair value at each reporting period, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations. The Company generally incorporates a binomial model to determine fair value. Upon conversion of a debt instrument where an embedded conversion option has been bifurcated and accounted for separately as a derivative liability, the Company records the resulting shares issued at fair value, derecognizes all related debt principal, derivative liability, and debt discount, and recognizes a net gain or loss on debt extinguishment. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC 815 are reclassified to liabilities at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date. The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risk. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no Debt Issuance Costs and Debt Discounts Debt discounts, debt issuance costs paid to lenders or third parties, and other original issue discounts on debt, are recorded as debt discount or debt issuance costs and amortized to interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations, over the term of the underlying debt instrument, using the effective interest method, with the unamortized portion reported net with related principal outstanding on the consolidated balance sheet. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded $ 738,142 no Revenue Recognition The Company’s revenues are generated from internet advertising, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers Identify the contract with a customer. A contract with a customer exists when (i) the Company enters into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii) the Company determines that collection of substantially all consideration for services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience or, in the case of a new customer, published credit and financial information pertaining to the customer. Identify the performance obligations in the contract. Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from the Company, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. To the extent a contract includes multiple promised services (performance obligations), the Company must apply judgment to determine whether promised services are capable of being distinct and distinct in the context of the contract. If these criteria are not met the promised services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation. Currently, the Company does not have any contracts that contain multiple performance obligations. Determine the transaction price. The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring services to the customer. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price utilizing either the expected value method or the most likely amount method depending on the nature of the variable consideration. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in the Company’s judgment, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur. None of the Company’s contracts as of December 31, 2023, and 2022 contained a significant financing component or variable consideration terms. Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract. If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. However, if a series of distinct services that are substantially the same qualifies as a single performance obligation in a contract with variable consideration, the Company must determine if the variable consideration is attributable to the entire contract or to a specific part of the contract. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price basis unless the transaction price is variable and meets the criteria to be allocated entirely to a performance obligation or to a distinct service that forms part of a single performance obligation. Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation. The Company satisfies performance obligations at a point in time. Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised service to a customer. Under both managed services arrangements or self-service arrangements, the Company’s promised services under the contracts include identification, bidding and purchasing of advertisement opportunities. The Company also generally has discretion in establishing the pricing of the ads. Since the Company is controlling the promise to deliver the contracted services, the Company is considered the principal in all arrangements for revenue recognition purposes. The performance obligations are satisfied, and revenue recognition, primarily upon publication of customer advertising content. All revenues recognized were derived from internet advertising for the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 to 90 days. Contract Liabilities Contract liabilities represent deposits made by customers before the satisfaction of performance obligation and recognition of revenue. Upon completion of the performance obligation(s) that the Company has with the customer based on the terms of the contract, the liability for the customer deposit is relieved and revenue is recognized. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, there were $ 195,135 193,598 Advertising Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs are included as a component of general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Advertising costs incurred were insignificant for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for our stock-based compensation, including stock options and common stock warrants, under ASC 718 Compensation – Stock Compensation, In connection with certain financing, consulting and collaboration arrangements, the Company may issue warrants to purchase shares of its common stock. The outstanding warrants are standalone instruments that are not puttable or mandatorily redeemable by the holder and are classified as equity awards. The fair value of stock-based compensation is generally determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model as of the date of the grant or the date at which the performance of the services is completed (measurement date). When determining fair value of stock-based compensation, the Company considers the following assumptions in the Black-Scholes model: · Exercise price, · Expected dividends, · Expected volatility, · Risk-free interest rate; and · Expected life of option Income Taxes The Company accounts for income tax using the asset and liability method prescribed by ASC 740, Income Taxes . The Company follows the accounting guidance for uncertainty in income taxes using the provisions of ASC 740. Using that guidance, tax positions initially need to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. As of December 31, 2023, and 2022, the Company did not identify any uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to recognized uncertain income tax positions, in other expense. No interest and penalties related to uncertain income tax positions were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022. Open tax years subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service generally remain open for three years from the filing date. Tax years subject to examination by the state jurisdictions generally remain open for up to four years from the filing date. Related Parties Parties are considered to be related to the Company if the parties, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal with if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. Recent Issued Accounting Pronouncement We consider the applicability and impact of all new accounting pronouncements on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, stockholders’ deficit, cash flows, or presentation thereof. Management has evaluated all recent accounting pronouncements as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) through the date these consolidated financial statements were available to be issued and found no recent accounting pronouncements issued, but not yet effective, that when adopted, will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] | |
STOCK OPTION PLANS AND WARRANTS | NOTE 7 – STOCK OPTION PLANS AND WARRANTS During Fiscal 2005, the Company established, and the stockholders approved, an Employee Benefit and Consulting Services Compensation Plan (the “2005 Plan”) for the granting of up to 334 non-statutory and incentive stock options and stock awards to directors, officers, consultants and key employees of the Company. On June 9, 2005, the Board of Directors amended the Plan to increase the number of stock options and awards to be granted under the Plan to 667 shares. During Fiscal 2009, the Company established a plan of long-term stock-based compensation incentives for selected Eligible Participants of the Company covering 667 shares. This plan was adopted by the Board of Directors and approved by stockholders in October 2009 (the “2009 Plan”). In September 2013, the Company’s stockholders approved an increase in the number of shares covered by the 2009 Plan to 1,667 shares. In the first quarter of 2016, the Board approved, and stockholders ratified a 2016 Employee Benefit and Consulting Services Compensation Plan covering 1,667 shares (the “2016 Plan”) and approved moving all options which exceeded the 2009 Plan limits to the 2016 Plan. In December 2018, the Board of Directors adopted and in February 2019 the stockholders ratified the 2018 Employee Benefit and Consulting Services Compensation Plan covering 5,000 shares (the “2018 Plan”). On April 2, 2019, the Board approved the “2019 Plan” identical to the 2018 Plan, except that the 2019 Plan covers 10,000 shares. The 2019 Plan required stockholder approval by April 2, 2020, to be able to grant incentive stock options under the 2019 Plan. On October 13, 2021, the Board approved the “2021 Plan” identical to the 2018 Plan, except that the 2021 Plan covers 73,334 shares. The 2021 Plan required stockholder approval by October 13, 2022, to be able to grant incentive stock options under the 2021 Plan. On April 17, 2023, the Board approved an Equity Participation Plan similar to the Plans described herein, except that this Plan also provides for the grant of Restricted Unit Awards (the “2023 EP Plan”). Under the 2023 EP Plan, which was approved by stockholders on May 15, 2023, a maximum of 166,667 2,000,000 In March of 2022, Anne S. Provost was elected to the board of directors and was granted 1,667 68.55 In April of 2022 and April 2023, Dean Julia was granted 833 23.25 3.30 In March and April 2023, Nate Knight and Byron Booker were each granted 1,667 3.30 On December 19, 2023, the board approved, under the 2023 Plan, granting five-year Non-Statutory Stock Options to purchase 1,800,000 0.20 All stock options under the Plans are granted at or above the fair market value of the common stock at the grant date. Employee and non-employee stock options vest over varying periods and generally expire either 5 or 10 years from the grant date. The fair value of options at the date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. For option grants, the Company will take into consideration payments subject to Stock Compensation.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE | NOTE 8 – EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE Pursuant to ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive common shares may consist of common stock issuable for stock options and warrants (using the treasury stock method), convertible notes and common stock issuable. These common stock equivalents may be dilutive in the future. In the event of a net loss, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share since the effect of the potential common stock equivalents upon conversion would be anti-dilutive. The following potentially dilutive equity securities outstanding as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 are as follows: Schedule of anti dilutive securities December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 Convertible notes payable and accrued interest – 3,926 Stock options 1,876,275 78,226 Warrants 653,358 312,254 Series AAA preferred stock 209,525 – Series H preferred stock 7,684,730 – Total common stock equivalents 10,423,888 394,406 |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | NOTE 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Litigation Michael Trepeta, a former Co-CEO and director of the Company, filed a lawsuit against the Company and its subsidiary, Mobiquity Networks in April 2023 in the New York State Supreme Court, Nassau County. The claims stem from a Separation Agreement and Release that Mr. Trepeta and the Company entered into six years ago in April 2017 which terminated Mr. Trepeta’ s employment agreement and discontinued his employment and directorship with the Company, among other things, by mutual agreement. Mr. Trepeta also gave the Company a release in the Separation Agreement and Release. Mr. Trepeta has claimed that the Company fraudulently induced him to enter into the Separation Agreement and Release; that the Company breached Mr. Trepeta’ s employment agreement; and that the Company breached its covenant of good faith and fair dealing and its fiduciary duty. Mr. Trepeta is claiming not less than $2.5 Million in damages. Based on the Company’s initial internal review of the situation, the Company believes the claims lack merit and it intends to vigorously defend same. In December 2023, the Company was notified that its motion to dismiss Mr. Trepeta’s action was granted but Mr. Trepeta has filed a notice of appeal. Due to uncertainties inherent in litigation, the Company cannot predict the outcome of this matter at this time. |

In connection with the Merchant Agreement, and as additional consideration, the Company has agreed to issue shares of its Common Stock to the financial institution in an amount equal to 5% of the Purchase Price. The number of shares issued is equal to 5% of the Purchase Price divided by the average closing per share price of the common stock for the previous twenty (20) days from the signed date of the Merchant Agreement. The balance of the Merchant Agreement funding is expected to be repaid in full during 2024. Promissory Notes In February 2024, Dr. Salkind, Board Chair, loaned the Company $150,000 of short-term debt financing for working capital. The loan is payable on demand.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUN_2
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2023 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. |
Business Segments and Concentrations | Business Segments and Concentrations The Company uses the “management approach” to identify its reportable segments. The management approach requires companies to report segment financial information consistent with information used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the basis for identifying the Company’s reportable segments. The Company manages its business as a single reporting segment. Customers in the United States accounted for 100% of our revenues. We do not have any property or equipment outside of the United States. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates Preparing financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of Company assets and liabilities, including the allowance for credit losses, stock-based compensation, the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
Risks and Uncertainties | Risks and Uncertainties The Company operates in an industry that is subject to intense competition and changes in consumer demand. The Company’s operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial and operational risks and the potential of overall business failure. The Company has experienced, and in the future expects to continue to experience, variability in sales and net earnings. The factors expected to contribute to this variability include, among others, (i) the cyclical nature of the industry, (ii) general economic conditions in the various local markets in which the Company competes, including a potential general downturn in the economy, and (iii) the volatility of prices in connection with the Company’s service offerings. These factors, among others, make it difficult to project the Company’s operating results on a consistent basis. |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company accounts for financial instruments at fair value, which as is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The valuation techniques are based on observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect readily obtainable data from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect certain market assumptions. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: · Level 1—Valuation based on quoted market prices in active markets that the Company can access for identical assets or liabilities; · Level 2—Valuation based on quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability; and · Level 3—Valuation based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, which require management’s best estimate of what market participants would use as fair value. Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair value. These financial instruments include accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and contract liabilities. At December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt approximates its carrying value based on current financing rates available to the Company. The Company does not have any other financial or non-financial assets or liabilities that would be characterized as Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 instruments. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Concentrations of Risk | Cash and Cash Equivalents and Concentrations of Risk For purposes of presentation in the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the purchase date and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did no The Company is exposed to credit risk on its cash in the event of default by the financial institutions to the extent account balances exceed the amount insured by the FDIC, which is $250,000. At December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not experience any losses on cash balances in excess of FDIC insured limits. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to funds could have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. For fiscal 2023 and 2022, sales of our products to two customers and one customer generated approximately 73 39 |
Accounts Receivable | Accounts Receivable Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments Accounts receivable represent customer obligations under normal trade terms and are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding customer balances. Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. Interest is not accrued on overdue accounts receivable. The Company does not require collateral. Five and six of our customers combined accounted for approximately 61 42 The Company had net accounts receivable, net, of $ 34,628 340,935 388,112 Management periodically assesses the Company’s accounts receivable and, if necessary, establishes an allowance for credit losses. The Company provides its allowance for credit losses based upon a review of the outstanding accounts receivable, historical collection information and existing economic conditions. Accounts determined to be uncollectible losses are charged to operations when that determination is made. The allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable and the related activity, for the year ended December 31, 2023, are as follows: Schedule of allowance for credit losses for accounts receivable activity Balance, December 31, 2022 $ 1,091,244 Provision for credit losses 66,666 Balance, December 31, 2023 $ 1,157,910 Bad debt expense (recovery) is recorded as a component of general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. |
Impairment of Long-lived Assets | Impairment of Long-lived Assets Management evaluates the recoverability of the Company’s identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets when events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment exists, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 360-10-35-15 “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” If impairment is indicated based on a comparison of the assets’ carrying values and the undiscounted cash flows, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. |
Property and Equipment | Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Expenditures for repair and maintenance which do not materially extend the useful lives of property and equipment are charged to operations. When property or equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts with the resulting gain or loss reflected in current results of operations. |
Goodwill | Goodwill The Company’s goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred for the acquisition of Advangelists, LLC in December 2018 over the fair value of the underlying identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but instead, it is tested for impairment at least annually. In the event that management determines that the value of goodwill has become impaired, the Company will record a charge in an amount equal to the excess of the reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit during the fiscal quarter in which the determination is made. The Company performs its annual impairment tests of goodwill as of December 31st of each year, or more frequently, if certain indicators are present. Goodwill is required to be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is an operating segment or one level below the operating segment level, which is referred to as a component. Management identifies its reporting units by assessing whether components (i) have discrete financial information available, (ii) engage in business activities, and (iii) whether a segment manager regularly reviews the component’s operating results. Net assets and goodwill of acquired businesses are allocated to the reporting unit associated with the acquired business based on the anticipated organizational structure of the combined entities. If two or more components are deemed economically similar, those components are aggregated into one reporting unit when performing the annual goodwill impairment review. The Company has one reporting unit as of December 31, 2023, and 2022. No |
Intangible Assets | Intangible Assets In December 2018, the Company acquired the majority of its intangible assets through its acquisition of Advangelists LLC, which included customer relationships and the ATOS platform technology. The Company amortizes its identifiable definite-lived intangible assets over an estimated period of 5 Capitalized Software Development Costs In accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal Use Software, the Company capitalizes certain internal-use software development costs associated with creating and enhancing internally developed software related to its platforms. Software development activities generally consist of three stages (i) the research and planning stage, (ii) the application and development stage, and (iii) the post-implementation stage. Costs incurred in the research and planning stage and in the post-implementation stage of software development, or other maintenance and development expenses that do not meet the qualification for capitalization, are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred in the application and development stage, including significant enhancements and upgrades, are capitalized. These costs include personnel and related employee benefits expenses for employees or consultants directly associated with and who devote time to software projects and external direct costs of materials obtained in developing the software. These software developments and acquired technology are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of five years upon the initial release of the software or additional features. The Company reviews the software development costs for impairment when circumstances indicate their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If the carrying value of an asset group is not recoverable, the Company recognizes an impairment loss for the excess of carrying value over the fair value in its consolidated statements of operations. See Note 3 for further details. |
Derivative Financial Instruments | Derivative Financial Instruments The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under FASB ASC Topic No. 480, (ASC 480), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity Derivatives and Hedging Terms of financial instruments are reviewed to determine whether or not they contain embedded derivative instruments that are required to be accounted for separately from the host contract under ASC 815 and recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivative liabilities are remeasured to reflect fair value at each reporting period, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations. The Company generally incorporates a binomial model to determine fair value. Upon conversion of a debt instrument where an embedded conversion option has been bifurcated and accounted for separately as a derivative liability, the Company records the resulting shares issued at fair value, derecognizes all related debt principal, derivative liability, and debt discount, and recognizes a net gain or loss on debt extinguishment. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC 815 are reclassified to liabilities at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date. The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risk. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had no |
Debt Issuance Costs and Debt Discounts | Debt Issuance Costs and Debt Discounts Debt discounts, debt issuance costs paid to lenders or third parties, and other original issue discounts on debt, are recorded as debt discount or debt issuance costs and amortized to interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations, over the term of the underlying debt instrument, using the effective interest method, with the unamortized portion reported net with related principal outstanding on the consolidated balance sheet. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded $ 738,142 no |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition The Company’s revenues are generated from internet advertising, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers Identify the contract with a customer. A contract with a customer exists when (i) the Company enters into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii) the Company determines that collection of substantially all consideration for services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience or, in the case of a new customer, published credit and financial information pertaining to the customer. Identify the performance obligations in the contract. Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from the Company, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. To the extent a contract includes multiple promised services (performance obligations), the Company must apply judgment to determine whether promised services are capable of being distinct and distinct in the context of the contract. If these criteria are not met the promised services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation. Currently, the Company does not have any contracts that contain multiple performance obligations. Determine the transaction price. The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring services to the customer. To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price utilizing either the expected value method or the most likely amount method depending on the nature of the variable consideration. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in the Company’s judgment, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur. None of the Company’s contracts as of December 31, 2023, and 2022 contained a significant financing component or variable consideration terms. Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract. If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. However, if a series of distinct services that are substantially the same qualifies as a single performance obligation in a contract with variable consideration, the Company must determine if the variable consideration is attributable to the entire contract or to a specific part of the contract. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price basis unless the transaction price is variable and meets the criteria to be allocated entirely to a performance obligation or to a distinct service that forms part of a single performance obligation. Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation. The Company satisfies performance obligations at a point in time. Revenue is recognized at the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised service to a customer. Under both managed services arrangements or self-service arrangements, the Company’s promised services under the contracts include identification, bidding and purchasing of advertisement opportunities. The Company also generally has discretion in establishing the pricing of the ads. Since the Company is controlling the promise to deliver the contracted services, the Company is considered the principal in all arrangements for revenue recognition purposes. The performance obligations are satisfied, and revenue recognition, primarily upon publication of customer advertising content. All revenues recognized were derived from internet advertising for the years ended December 31, 2023, and 2022.
