Disclosure Text Block [Abstract]
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block]	1	Nature and continuance of operations
	IGEN Networks Corp, (“IGEN”, or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 14, 2006.  The Company has been primarily in a development state since inception pursuing a variety of different technologies and markets. Commencing January 1, 2012, the Company is no longer a Development Stage Company, as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (”ASC”) 915, Development Stage Entities, after the Company took on new investment, new management, and a new business model in September of 2011.   IGEN’s primary business is investing in and managing for growth private high-tech companies that offer products and services in the domains of wireless broadband, Software as a Service, and Machine to Machine solutions.   A secondary part of IGEN’s business is negotiating distribution agreements with relevant organizations and selling their products and services through the distribution channels of our portfolio companies, or newly developed IGEN sales channels. Commencing May 5, 2014, the Company was also in the business of providing vehicle tracking and recovery solutions to the automotive and power sport industries after the acquisition of Nimbo, LLC (Note 2).
	These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which imply the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company generated revenue for the first time in the fourth quarter of 2011 and continued to grow revenue into 2014.  The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, on the ability of the company to grow its revenue base, on its ability to successfully grow the companies in which it is invested, and on the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to both support the latter objectives and to invest in and grow new companies. The Company has recurring losses since inception and had accumulated losses of $6,062,422 as at December 31, 2014.  These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Although there are no assurances that management’s plans will be realized, management believes that the Company will be able to continue operations into the future.  These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Business Combination Disclosure [Text Block]	2	Business Acquisition
	Effective May 5, 2014 (the “Acquisition Date”), the Company took control of Nimbo, LLC (“Nimbo”), a corporation incorporated in Texas U.S.A., by acquiring 100% of the voting equity interest (the “Acquisition”) of Nimbo. Nimbo is in the business of providing vehicle tracking and recovery solutions to the automotive and power sport industries. The Company intends on applying human resources and capital to help growing Nimbo LLC.  The Company issued 2,500,000 common shares as consideration of the Acquisition. The fair value of these common shares was $475,000, which was determined on the basis of the closing price of Igen’s common share on the Acquisition Date.
	In accordance with the FASB ASC 805, the Acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase of a business and the Company is identified as the acquirer. The fair value of the purchase consideration of $475,000 was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair values on the date of acquisition as described below:
	Assets acquired
	Cash		$	42,672
	Accounts receivable (net of $9,258 provision for uncollectable)			117,727

3_Summary_of_Significant_Accou

3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	12 Months Ended
	Dec. 31, 2014
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]	3.     Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
	a)	Basic of presentation and consolidation
	These consolidated financial statements and related notes include the records of IGEN Networks Corp., its wholly owned subsidiary, IGEN Business Solutions Inc (incorporated in Canada) and Nimbo LLC (incorporated in USA).
	As discussed in Note 2, as of the completion of the Acquisition on May 5, 2014, the Company has started to consolidate the results of operation and cash flow of Nimbo to the Company’s consolidated financial statement.  As a result, the consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2013 (collectively the “2013 Comparative Figures”) include only the accounts of Igen.
	All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. These consolidated interim financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, expressed in US dollars, and, in management’s opinion, have been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarized as in the following:
	b)	Use of estimates
	The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to donated expenses, and deferred income tax asset valuations. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
	c)	Loss per share
	Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted earnings per share give effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted earnings (loss) per share, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted earnings (loss) per share exclude all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
	Because the effect of conversion of the Company’s dilutive securities is anti-dilutive, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the periods presented.
	d)    Financial instruments
	The Company adopted FASB ASC 820-10-50, “Fair Value Measurements”. This guidance defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follows:
	- Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
	- Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
	- Level 3 inputs to valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair measurement.
	The fair values of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian dollars. The fair value of cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs and the fair value of derivative liability with convertible debt is determined based on “Level 2” inputs. The financial risk is the risk to the Company’s operations that arise from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility to these rates. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk. Financial instrument that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consists of cash. The Company places its cash in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions.
	e)	Equipment
	Office equipment and computer are recorded at cost. Amortization is provided annually at rates and methods over their estimated useful lives as follows, except in the year of acquisition when one half of the rate is used. Management reviews the estimates of useful lives of the assets every year and adjust them on prospective basis, if needed.
		Office equipment	20% declining balance
		Computer	55% declining balance
		Software	3 years straight line
	Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in the circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. If the total of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the asset during the year the impairment occurs. Subsequent expenditure relating to an item of office equipment is capitalized when it is probable that future economic benefits from the use of the assets will be increased.
	f)    Revenue recognition
	The Company recognizes revenue when earned, specifically when all the following conditions are met:
	- Services are provided or products are delivered to customers.
	- There is clear evidence that an arrangement exists.
	- Amounts are fixed or can be determined.
	- The ability to collect is reasonably assured.
	- There is no significant obligation for future performance.
	- The amount of future returns can be reasonably estimated.
	g)	Foreign currency transaction balances
	The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The consolidated financial statements of the Company are translated to U.S. dollars in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Translation Matters, using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income.
	Assets and liabilities of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars at the year-end exchange rates, and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates during the period. Exchange differences arising on translation are disclosed as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.
	h)	Income taxes
	The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has issued FASB ASC 740-10. FASB ASC 740-10 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with prior literature FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This standard requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more likely than not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements. As a result of the implementation of this standard, the Company performed a review of its material tax positions in accordance with recognition and measurement standards established by FASB ASC 740-10.
	Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
	i)	Stock-based compensation
	The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
	The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards. This model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the consolidated statement of operations over the requisite service period.
	j)	Inventories
	Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost being determined on a first-in, first-Out (FIFO) basis.  Inventories as at December 31, 2014 were solely finished goods that can be resold. There was no provision for inventory recorded during the year ended December 31, 2014.
	k)	Deferred revenue
	As at December 31, 2014, the Company had deferred revenues of $54,484. Annual service renewal fees are recorded as a component of deferred revenue in the balance sheets at the inception of the contract and are recognized as revenue evenly over the contract period, which is generally one year.
	l)    Changes in accounting policies and recent accounting pronouncements
	The Company has not adopted new accounting policies since it most recent year ended December 31, 2013.  The Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

	During the year ended December 31, 2014, this investment was fully written off as management determined the investment cannot be recovered and the Company recorded an impairment loss of $150,000.
	Investment in an associate
	Pursuant to an option agreement, the Company incurred $50,000 and $50,000 (totaling $100,000) to acquire 200,000 and 200,000 (totaling 400,000) common shares of Gogiro Internet Group (“Gogiro”), a private Canadian Company, on November 23, 2011 and October 17, 2012 respectively.
	On March 12, 2013, the Company signed an agreement to acquire 2,078,080 shares of Gogiro through the issuance of 1,744,747 restricted common shares of the Company (the “Gogiro Acquisition”).  Neil Chan, CEO and Director of both companies, would exchange 2,000,000 Gogiro shares for 1,666,667 restricted common shares of the Company.  The proceeds of Gogiro Acquisition was $174,475 which was the fair value of the 1,744,747 restricted shares of the Company.
	Upon the completion of the Gogiro Acquisition in March 2013, the Company’s interest on Gogiro increased to more than 30%.  As a result, the Company has changed its method to account for its investment in Gogiro from “cost less impairment value” method to equity method as the Company’s interest on Gogiro has surpassed 20% whereby the Company is considered having significant influence on Gogiro. The Company’s weighted average ownership on Gogiro was 31.12% and 30.44% during the March 12 to December 31, 2013 and Year Ended December 31, 2014 respectively. Consequently the Company has included Gogiro’s losses in the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance to the percentage ownership (31.12% for fiscal 2013; 30.44% for fiscal 2014). In addition, gains and losses resulting from 'upstream' and 'downstream' transactions between IGEN and Gogiro are recognized in IGEN’s consolidated financial statements only to the extent of unrelated investors' interests in Gogiro. Changes in carrying value of the Company’s investment in Gogiro are as follows:
			Number of Gogiro			Amount ($)
			shares owned
	Balance, December 31, 2012			400,000			100,340
	The acquisition of 1,744,747 shares of Gogiro			2,078,080			174,475

Convertible Debt And Derivative Liabilities [Abstract]
Convertible Debt And Derivative Liabilities [Text Block]	8.       Convertible debt and derivative liabilities
	On May 4, 2013 and May 31, 2013, the Company issued two convertible debentures (“CDs”) in the principal of CAD$100,000 ($94,000) and CAD$50,000 ($ 47,000) respectively (totalling CAD$150,000 or $141,000). The CD with the principal of CAD$100,000 (“CD#1) and the CD with the principal of CAD 50,000 (“CD#2”) were agreed to mature on January 1, 2015 upon issuance.  These CDs are non-secured, carry interest of 14% per annum payable monthly or at term. Subject to the approval of the holder of the CDs, IGEN may convert any of all of the principal and/or interest at any time following the 6 month anniversary of the issuance date of the CDs into common shares of IGEN at a price per share equal to a 20% discount to the fair market value of IGEN’s common share.
	As the CDs are denominated in Canadian dollars (a currency different from the functional currency of the Company) and the exercise prices are not fixed (a 20% discount to the fair market value of IGEN’s common share), a derivative is recognized as a liability. The derivative liability is recorded at fair value and re-measured each period with the movement being recorded as a gain or loss in consolidated income (loss).  The CDs are classified as a liability, less the portion relating to the derivative feature. As a result, the Company recorded derivative liabilities of $101,823 and convertible notes of $39,177 at dates of issuance of the CDs.
	On March 31, 2014, the maturity of CD#1 was extended to July 1, 2015.  However, the CD#1 was exercised into 611,995 common shares of the Company in July 2014. As a result, the Company recorded a net gain of $1,467 to account for the extension and the exercise of the CD#1.
	The Company records accretion expense over the term of the convertible notes up to their principal when these CDs come due.  During 2014, accretion expenses of $62,418 (2013 - $39,405) was recorded. Interest expense on the CDs is composed of the interest calculated on the face value of the CDs at 14% per annum which amounted to $12,574 during 2014 (2013 - $13,096).
	During 2014, the Company recorded a gain on the change in fair value of the derivative liability of $98,992 (2013 - $2,831). The Continuity of these convertible debentures is as follows:

	All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. These consolidated interim financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, expressed in US dollars, and, in management’s opinion, have been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarized as in the following:
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]	b)	Use of estimates
	The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to donated expenses, and deferred income tax asset valuations. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]	c)	Loss per share
	Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted earnings per share give effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted earnings (loss) per share, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted earnings (loss) per share exclude all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
	Because the effect of conversion of the Company’s dilutive securities is anti-dilutive, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the periods presented.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block]	d)    Financial instruments
	The Company adopted FASB ASC 820-10-50, “Fair Value Measurements”. This guidance defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follows:
	- Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
	- Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
	- Level 3 inputs to valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair measurement.
	The fair values of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian dollars. The fair value of cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs and the fair value of derivative liability with convertible debt is determined based on “Level 2” inputs. The financial risk is the risk to the Company’s operations that arise from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility to these rates. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk. Financial instrument that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consists of cash. The Company places its cash in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions.
Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block]	e)	Equipment
	Office equipment and computer are recorded at cost. Amortization is provided annually at rates and methods over their estimated useful lives as follows, except in the year of acquisition when one half of the rate is used. Management reviews the estimates of useful lives of the assets every year and adjust them on prospective basis, if needed.
		Office equipment	20% declining balance
		Computer	55% declining balance
		Software	3 years straight line
	Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in the circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. If the total of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the asset during the year the impairment occurs. Subsequent expenditure relating to an item of office equipment is capitalized when it is probable that future economic benefits from the use of the assets will be increased.
Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block]	f)    Revenue recognition
	The Company recognizes revenue when earned, specifically when all the following conditions are met:
	- Services are provided or products are delivered to customers.
	- There is clear evidence that an arrangement exists.
	- Amounts are fixed or can be determined.
	- The ability to collect is reasonably assured.
	- There is no significant obligation for future performance.
	- The amount of future returns can be reasonably estimated.
Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block]	g)	Foreign currency transaction balances
	The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The consolidated financial statements of the Company are translated to U.S. dollars in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Translation Matters, using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income.
	Assets and liabilities of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars at the year-end exchange rates, and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates during the period. Exchange differences arising on translation are disclosed as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]	h)	Income taxes
	The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has issued FASB ASC 740-10. FASB ASC 740-10 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with prior literature FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This standard requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more likely than not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements. As a result of the implementation of this standard, the Company performed a review of its material tax positions in accordance with recognition and measurement standards established by FASB ASC 740-10.
	Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy [Policy Text Block]	i)	Stock-based compensation
	The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
	The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards. This model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the consolidated statement of operations over the requisite service period.
Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block]	j)	Inventories
	Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost being determined on a first-in, first-Out (FIFO) basis.  Inventories as at December 31, 2014 were solely finished goods that can be resold. There was no provision for inventory recorded during the year ended December 31, 2014.
Revenue Recognition, Deferred Revenue [Policy Text Block]	k)	Deferred revenue
	As at December 31, 2014, the Company had deferred revenues of $54,484. Annual service renewal fees are recorded as a component of deferred revenue in the balance sheets at the inception of the contract and are recognized as revenue evenly over the contract period, which is generally one year.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]	l)    Changes in accounting policies and recent accounting pronouncements
	The Company has not adopted new accounting policies since it most recent year ended December 31, 2013.  The Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
