The Company also offers deals on products for which it acts as the merchant of record. Customers can access the Company's deal offerings directly through its websites and mobile applications and indirectly using search engines. The Company also sends emails to its subscribers with deal offerings that are targeted by location and personal preferences. The Company's operations are organized into three segments: North America, EMEA, which is comprised of Europe, Middle East and Africa, and the remainder of the Company's international operations ("Rest of World"). See Note 12 "Segment Information." In January 2014, the Company acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of LivingSocial Korea, Inc., including its subsidiary Ticket Monster, Inc. ("Ticket Monster"), for total consideration of $259.4 million , consisting of $96.5 million in cash and $162.9 million of Class A common stock. Ticket Monster is an e-commerce company based in the Republic of Korea that connects merchants to consumers by offering goods and services at a discount. The operations of Ticket Monster were previously reported in the Company's Rest of World segment. On May 27, 2015, the Company sold a controlling stake in Ticket Monster that resulted in its deconsolidation. The financial results of Ticket Monster, including the gain on disposition and related tax effects, are presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. Additionally, the assets and liabilities of Ticket Monster are presented as held for sale in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014. See Note 2, "Discontinued Operations," for additional information. Unaudited Interim Financial Information The Company has prepared the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial reporting. These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in the Company's opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), cash flows and stockholders' equity for the periods presented. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2015. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, as filed with the SEC on February 13, 2015. Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and include the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses of all wholly-owned subsidiaries and majority-owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control and variable interest entities for which the Company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary. Outside stockholders' interests in subsidiaries are shown on the condensed consolidated financial statements as "Noncontrolling interests." Equity investments in entities in which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest are accounted for under the equity method, the cost method, the fair value option or as available-for-sale securities, as appropriate. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the condensed consolidated financial statements of prior periods and the accompanying notes to conform to the current period presentation. Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses, and the related disclosures of contingent liabilities in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates are utilized for, but not limited to, stock-based compensation, income taxes, valuation of acquired goodwill and intangible assets, investments, customer refunds, contingent liabilities and the useful lives of property, equipment and software and intangible assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. |

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract] | |
Discontinued Operations | DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS On May 27, 2015, the Company sold a controlling stake in Ticket Monster to an investor group. See Note 5, " Investments ," for information about this transaction. The Company recognized a pre-tax gain on the disposition of $202.2 million ( $138.0 million net of tax), which represents the excess of (a) the $398.8 million in net consideration received, consisting of (i) $285.0 million in cash proceeds and (ii) the $122.1 million fair value of its retained minority investment, less (iii) $8.3 million in transaction costs, over (b) the sum of (i) the $184.3 million net book value of Ticket Monster upon the closing of the transaction and (ii) Ticket Monster's $12.3 million cumulative translation loss, which was reclassified to earnings. The Company adopted the guidance in Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosure of Disposals of Components of an Entity , on January 1, 2015 for disposal transactions that occur on or after that date. Under that guidance, a component of an entity is reported in discontinued operations after meeting the criteria for held-for-sale classification if the disposition represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on the entity's operations and financial results. The Company analyzed the quantitative and qualitative factors relevant to the Ticket Monster disposition transaction and determined that those conditions for discontinued operations presentation have been met. As such, the financial results of Ticket Monster, the gain on disposition and the related income tax effects are reported within discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. The following table summarizes the major classes of line items included in income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 (in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 (1) 2014 2015 (1) 2014 Third party and other revenue $ 10,262 $ 33,437 $ 28,145 $ 62,164 Direct revenue 14,242 1,928 39,065 2,423 Third party and other cost of revenue (4,434 ) (9,621 ) (13,958 ) (18,170 ) Direct cost of revenue (12,082 ) (2,292 ) (38,031 ) (2,756 ) Marketing expense (3,472 ) (6,576 ) (8,495 ) (16,315 ) Selling, general and administrative expense (15,339 ) (27,106 ) (38,102 ) (51,165 ) Other income, net 35 — 96 — Loss from discontinued operations before gain on disposition and provision for income taxes (10,788 ) (10,230 ) (31,280 ) (23,819 ) Gain on disposition 202,158 — 202,158 — Provision for income taxes (64,191 ) — (37,415 ) — Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax $ 127,179 $ (10,230 ) $ 133,463 $ (23,819 ) (1) The income from discontinued operations, net of tax, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 includes the results of Ticket Monster through the disposition date of May 27, 2015. The $64.2 million provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2015 reflects the current and deferred income tax effects of the Ticket Monster disposition. The $37.4 million provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2015 reflects (i) the $64.2 million current and deferred income tax effects of the Ticket Monster disposition during the second quarter of 2015, partially offset by (ii) a $26.8 million tax benefit that resulted from the recognition of a deferred tax asset related to the excess of the tax basis over the financial reporting basis of the Company's investment in Ticket Monster upon meeting the criteria for held-for-sale classification during the first quarter of 2015. No income tax benefits were recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 because valuation allowances have been provided against the related net deferred tax assets. The following table summarizes the carrying amounts of the major classes of assets and liabilities held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 (in thousands): December 31, 2014 Cash $ 55,279 Accounts receivable, net 14,557 Deferred income taxes 512 Property, equipment and software, net 6,471 Goodwill 211,054 Intangible assets, net 79,948 Other assets 18,729 Assets classified as held for sale $ 386,550 Accounts payable $ 8,033 Accrued merchant and supplier payables 138,411 Accrued expenses 16,092 Deferred income taxes 512 Other liabilities 9,944 Liabilities classified as held for sale $ 172,992 |

Business Combinations [Abstract] | |
Business Combinations | BUSINESS COMBINATIONS The Company acquired four businesses during the six months ended June 30, 2015 . Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method, and the results of each of those acquired businesses are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements beginning on the respective acquisition date. The fair value of consideration transferred in business combinations is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, with the remaining unallocated amount recorded as goodwill. The allocations of the acquisition price for recent acquisitions have been prepared on a preliminary basis, and changes to those allocations may occur as a result of final working capital adjustments and tax return filings. Acquired goodwill represents the premium the Company paid over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. The Company paid these premiums for a number of reasons, including growing the Company's merchant and customer base, acquiring assembled workforces, expanding its presence in international markets, expanding and advancing its product offerings and enhancing technology capabilities. The goodwill from these business combinations is generally not deductible for tax purposes. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , $0.9 million and $0.9 million , respectively, of external transaction costs related to business combinations, primarily consisting of legal and advisory fees, are classified within "Acquisition-related (benefit) expense, net" on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The aggregate acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred for these acquisitions totaled $5.7 million , which consisted of the following (in thousands): Cash $ 5,461 Liability for purchase consideration 250 Total $ 5,711 The following table summarizes the allocation of the aggregate purchase price of these acquisitions for the six months ended June 30, 2015 (in thousands): Net working capital deficit (including acquired cash of $2.3 million) $ (647 ) Goodwill 2,898 Intangible assets: (1) Subscriber relationships 1,016 Merchant relationships 809 Developed technology 1,339 Brand relationships 296 Total acquisition purchase price $ 5,711 (1) Acquired intangible assets have estimated useful lives of between 1 and 5 years. Pro forma results of operations for these acquisitions are not presented because the effects of these acquisitions, individually and in the aggregate, were not material to the Company's condensed consolidated results of operations. |

The investor group and Mr. Daniel Shin, the current chief executive officer and founder of Ticket Monster, will contribute an additional $10.0 million of cash consideration to Monster LP within six months of the closing date in exchange for 2,000,000 Class A units of Monster LP. Additionally, Monster LP is authorized to issue 20,321,839 Class C units to its management that will be subject to time-based vesting conditions and, for a portion of Class C units, a performance-based vesting condition. The Class A units of Monster LP are entitled to a $486.0 million liquidation preference, which must be paid prior to any distributions to the holders of Class B and Class C units. All distributions in excess of $486.0 million and up to $680.0 million will be paid to holders of Class B units. Holders of Class B units will be entitled to share in distributions between $703.0 million and $1,116.0 million in accordance with the terms of Monster LP's distribution waterfall, and distributions in excess of $1,116.0 million will be made pro rata to all unit holders. In connection with the disposition of Ticker Monster as discussed above, the Company obtained a minority limited partner interest in Monster LP. The investment in Monster LP was measured at its fair value of $122.1 million as of its acquisition date. The initial fair value was determined using the backsolve valuation method, which is a form of the market approach. Under this method, assumptions are made about the expected time to liquidity, volatility and risk-free rate such that the price paid by a third-party investor in a recent financing round can be used to determine the value of the entity and its other securities using option-pricing methodologies. The $122.1 million fair value of the Company's investment in Monster LP was based on the contractual liquidation preferences and the following valuation assumptions: 4-year expected time to a liquidity event, 60% volatility and a 1.3% risk-free rate. The initial fair value of Monster LP, determined using the backsolve method, was calibrated to a discounted cash flow valuation, an income approach, and was further corroborated using a market approach. The Company has made an irrevocable election to account for its minority limited partner interest in Monster LP at fair value with changes in fair value reported in earnings. The Company elected to apply fair value accounting because it believes that fair value is the most relevant measurement attribute for this investment, as well as to reduce operational and accounting complexity. As of June 30, 2015, the Company measured the fair value of Monster LP using the discounted cash flow method and the market approach. The Company recognized a gain of $0.5 million from changes in the fair value of its investment in Monster LP from the acquisition date to June 30, 2015. The following table summarizes the condensed consolidated financial information for Monster LP (in thousands): Period from May 28, 2015 through June 30, 2015 (1) Revenue $ 14,110 Gross profit 4,338 Loss before income taxes (8,339 ) Net loss (8,339 ) June 30, 2015 Current assets $ 146,960 Non-current assets 512,766 Current liabilities 186,792 Non-current liabilities 7,277 (1) The summarized financial information is presented for the period beginning May 28, 2015, after completion of the Ticket Monster disposition transaction that resulted in the Company obtaining its minority limited partner interest in Monster LP. |

Commitments and Contingencies | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company's commitments as of June 30, 2015 did not materially change from the amounts set forth in the Company's 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Legal Matters From time to time, the Company is party to various legal proceedings incident to the operation of its business. For example, the Company is currently involved in proceedings brought by stockholders, former employees and merchants, intellectual property infringement suits and suits by customers (individually or as class actions) alleging, among other things, violations of the federal securities laws, the Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility and Disclosure Act and state laws governing gift cards, stored value cards and coupons. The following is a brief description of significant legal proceedings. On February 8, 2012, the Company issued a press release announcing its expected financial results for the fourth quarter of 2011. After finalizing its year-end financial statements, the Company announced on March 30, 2012 revised financial results, as well as a material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting related to deficiencies in its financial statement close process. The revisions resulted in a reduction to fourth quarter 2011 revenue of $14.3 million . The revisions also resulted in an increase to fourth quarter operating expenses that reduced operating income by $30.0 million , net income by $22.6 million and earnings per share by $0.04 . Following this announcement, the Company and several of its current and former directors and officers were named as parties to the following outstanding securities class action and purported stockholder derivative lawsuits all arising out of the same alleged events and facts. The Company is currently a defendant in a proceeding pursuant to which, on October 29, 2012, a consolidated amended class action complaint was filed against the Company, certain of its directors and officers, and the underwriters that participated in the initial public offering of the Company's Class A common stock. Originally filed in April 2012, the case is currently pending before the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois: In re Groupon, Inc. Securities Litigation . The complaint asserts claims pursuant to Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 and Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Allegations in the consolidated amended complaint include that the Company and its officers and directors made untrue statements or omissions of material fact by issuing inaccurate financial statements for the fiscal quarter and the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011 and by failing to disclose information about the Company's financial controls in the registration statement and prospectus for the Company's initial public offering of Class A common stock and in the Company's subsequently-issued earnings release dated February 8, 2012. The lawsuit seeks an unspecified amount of monetary damages, reimbursement for fees and costs incurred in connection with the actions, including attorneys' fees, and various other forms of monetary and non-monetary relief. On September 25, 2014, the district court entered an order granting plaintiff's motion for class certification. On October 1, 2014, the Company filed a petition for leave to appeal that order in the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, which the court denied on May 7, 2015, and the Company retains its right to appeal any final judgment that is entered in the action. On June 25, 2015, the district court entered an order directing that class notice be provided to the members of the certified class and subclass, and establishing a program and schedule for class notice. On June 29, 2015, the parties concluded fact discovery, including the depositions of fact witnesses. The parties are currently engaged in expert discovery, and dispositive motions are scheduled to be filed by January 29, 2016. The district court has not yet scheduled a trial date. In addition, federal and state purported stockholder derivative lawsuits have been filed against certain of the Company's current and former directors and officers. The federal purported stockholder derivative lawsuit was originally filed in April 2012, and a consolidated stockholder derivative complaint, filed on July 30, 2012, is currently pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois: In re Groupon Derivative Litigation . Plaintiffs assert claims for breach of fiduciary duty and abuse of control. The state derivative cases are currently pending before the Chancery Division of the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois: Orrego v. Lefkofsky, et al., was filed on April 5, 2012; and Kim v. Lefkofsky, et al., was filed on May 25, 2012. The state derivative complaints generally allege that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties by purportedly mismanaging the Company's business by, among other things, failing to utilize proper accounting controls and, in the case of one of the state derivative lawsuits, by engaging in alleged insider trading of the Company's Class A common stock and misappropriating information. In addition, one state derivative case asserts a claim for unjust enrichment. The derivative lawsuits purport to seek to recoup for the Company an unspecified amount of monetary damages allegedly sustained by the Company, restitution from defendants, reimbursement for fees and costs incurred in connection with the actions, including attorneys' fees, and various other forms of monetary and non-monetary relief. On June 20, 2012, the Company and the individual defendants filed a motion requesting that the court stay the consolidated federal derivative action pending resolution of the consolidated federal class action. On July 31, 2012, the court granted defendants' motion in part, and stayed the consolidated federal derivative action pending a separate resolution of upcoming motions to dismiss in the consolidated federal class action. On June 15, 2012, the state plaintiffs filed a motion to consolidate the state derivative actions, which was granted on July 2, 2012, and on July 5, 2012, the plaintiffs filed a motion for appointment of co-lead plaintiffs and co-lead counsel, which was granted on July 27, 2012. No consolidated complaint has been filed in the state derivative action. On September 14, 2012, the court granted a motion filed by the parties requesting that the court stay the state derivative actions pending the federal court's resolution of anticipated motions to dismiss in the consolidated federal class action. On April 18, 2013, the state court appointed a lead plaintiff and approved its selection of lead counsel and local counsel for the purported derivative action. Following entry of the federal court's order denying defendants' motions to dismiss in In re Groupon Securities Litigation, the courts in both the state and federal derivative actions granted motions requesting that the respective courts extend the litigation stays currently in place pending further developments in In re Groupon, Inc. Securities Litigation. The Company intends to defend all of the securities and stockholder derivative lawsuits vigorously. In 2010, the Company was named as a defendant in a series of class actions that came to be consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California. The consolidated actions are referred to as In re Groupon Marketing and Sales Practices Litigation . The Company denies liability, but the parties agreed to settle the litigation for $8.5 million before any determination had been made on the merits or with respect to class certification. On December 18, 2012, the district court approved the settlement over various objections to the settlement lodged by certain individual class members. Thereafter, certain of the objectors filed an appeal, and on February 19, 2015, the Court of Appeals vacated the settlement and remanded the case for further proceedings concerning the proposed settlement consistent with the Court of Appeals' opinion. On June 22, 2015, the Company terminated the settlement agreement as is permitted under its terms. The parties thereafter re-commenced settlement negotiations, and in July 2015 reached an agreement in principle regarding a new settlement involving a combination of cash and Groupon credits, worth a total of $8.5M, which the parties are in the process of documenting and which the parties plan to submit to the court during the third quarter for approval under the rules that govern class action settlements. The Company continues to deny liability and if the settlement is not approved by the court or is not consummated for any reason, will contest the case vigorously. In addition, third parties have from time to time claimed, and others may claim in the future, that the Company has infringed their intellectual property rights. The Company is subject to intellectual property disputes, including patent infringement claims, and expects that it will increasingly be subject to intellectual property infringement claims as its services expand in scope and complexity. The Company has in the past litigated such claims, and the Company is presently involved in several patent infringement and other intellectual property-related claims, including pending litigation, some of which could involve potentially substantial claims for damages. The Company may also become more vulnerable to third party claims as laws such as the Digital Millennium Copyright Act are interpreted by the courts, and as the Company becomes subject to laws in jurisdictions where the underlying laws with respect to the potential liability of online intermediaries are either unclear or less favorable. The Company believes that additional lawsuits alleging that it has violated patent, copyright or trademark laws will be filed against it. Intellectual property claims, whether meritorious or not, are time consuming and costly to resolve, could require expensive changes in the Company's methods of doing business, or could require it to enter into costly royalty or licensing agreements. The Company is also subject to, or in the future may become subject to, a variety of regulatory inquiries across the jurisdictions where the Company conducts its business, including, for example, consumer protection, marketing practices, tax and privacy rules and regulations. Any regulatory actions against the Company, whether meritorious or not, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation, damage awards, injunctive relief or increased costs of doing business through adverse judgment or settlement, require the Company to change its business practices in expensive ways, require significant amounts of management time, result in the diversion of significant operational resources or otherwise harm the Company's business. Certain foreign tax authorities have issued assessments totaling $43.4 million to subsidiaries of the Company for additional value-added taxes (VAT) covering periods ranging from January 2011 to May 2014, including interest and penalties through the date of the assessments. Those tax authorities are alleging that, for VAT purposes, the Company's revenues from voucher sales should reflect the total amounts collected from purchasers of those vouchers, rather than the amounts that the Company retains after deducting the portion that is payable to the featured merchants. The Company believes that the assessments are without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself in these matters. The Company establishes an accrued liability for loss contingencies related to legal and regulatory matters when the loss is both probable and estimable. These accruals represent management's best estimate of probable losses and in such cases, there may be an exposure to loss in excess of the amounts accrued. For each matter described above, there are inherent and significant uncertainties based on, among other factors, the stage of the proceedings, developments in the applicable facts of law, or the lack of a specific damage claim. In addition, for some matters for which a loss is probable or reasonably possible, an estimate of the amount of loss or range of loss is not possible, and we may be unable to estimate the possible loss or range of losses that could potentially result from the application of non-monetary remedies. Currently, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the amount of reasonably possible losses in excess of the amounts accrued for the securities and stockholder derivative lawsuits. For the remaining matters described above, the Company believes that the amount of reasonably possible losses in excess of the amounts accrued would not have a material adverse effect on its business, consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company's accrued liabilities for loss contingencies related to legal and regulatory matters may change in the future as a result of new developments, including, but not limited to, the occurrence of new legal matters, changes in the law or regulatory environment, adverse or favorable rulings, newly discovered facts relevant to the matter, or changes in the strategy for the matter. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on the Company because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors. Indemnification In the normal course of business to facilitate transactions related to its operations, the Company indemnifies certain parties, including employees, lessors, service providers and merchants, with respect to various matters. The Company has agreed to hold certain parties harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations or covenants, or other claims made against those parties. These agreements may limit the time within which an indemnification claim can be made and the amount of the claim. The Company is also subject to increased exposure to various claims as a result of its acquisitions, particularly in cases where the Company is entering into new businesses in connection with such acquisitions. The Company may also become more vulnerable to claims as it expands the range and scope of its services and is subject to laws in jurisdictions where the underlying laws with respect to potential liability are either unclear or less favorable. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its officers, directors and underwriters, and the Company's bylaws contain similar indemnification obligations to agents. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, any payments that the Company has made under these agreements have not had a material impact on the operating results, financial position or cash flows of the Company. |

Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract] | |
Stockholders' Equity and Compensation Arrangements | STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY AND COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS Common Stock The Company's certificate of incorporation, as amended and restated, authorizes three classes of common stock: Class A common stock, Class B common stock and common stock. No shares of common stock will be issued or outstanding until October 31, 2016, at which time all outstanding shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock will automatically convert into shares of common stock. In addition, the Company's certificate of incorporation authorizes shares of undesignated preferred stock, the rights, preferences and privileges of which may be designated from time to time by the Board. Share Repurchase Programs The Board previously authorized the Company to purchase up to $300.0 million of its outstanding Class A common stock through August 2015. The Company has completed its repurchases under this authorization. During the three months ended June 30, 2015 , the Company announced that its Board approved a new share repurchase program, under which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to an additional $500.0 million of its Class A common stock through August 2017. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 , the Company purchased 19,334,744 and 21,752,444 shares of Class A common stock, respectively, for an aggregate purchase price of $122.7 million and $141.2 million (including fees and commissions), respectively, under its share repurchase programs. As of June 30, 2015 , up to $461.0 million of Class A common stock remains available for purchase under its current share repurchase program. The timing and amount of any share repurchases are determined based on market conditions, share price and other factors, and the programs may be discontinued or suspended at any time. Groupon, Inc. Stock Plans The Groupon, Inc. Stock Plans (the "Plans") are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board, which determines the number of awards to be issued, the corresponding vesting schedule and the exercise price for options. As of June 30, 2015 , 33,584,296 shares were available for future issuance under the Plans. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense from continuing operations of $38.5 million and $29.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and $73.6 million and $52.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, related to stock awards issued under the Plans and acquisition-related awards. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense from discontinued operations of $4.2 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and $5.3 million and $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. The Company also capitalized $3.3 million and $2.8 million of stock-based compensation for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and $6.4 million and $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, in connection with internally-developed software. As of June 30, 2015 , a total of $257.1 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested employee stock awards and unvested acquisition-related awards are expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 1.30 years. Employee Stock Purchase Plan The Company is authorized to grant up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock under its employee stock purchase plan ("ESPP"). For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 , 328,644 and 333,824 shares of common stock were issued under the ESPP, respectively. Stock Options The table below summarizes the stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2015 : Options Weighted- Average Exercise Price Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value (1) Outstanding at December 31, 2014 2,262,994 $ 1.09 5.03 $ 16,226 Exercised (398,720 ) $ 0.94 Forfeited (902 ) $ 2.48 Outstanding at June 30, 2015 1,863,372 $ 1.12 4.55 $ 7,286 Exercisable at June 30, 2015 1,863,372 $ 1.12 4.55 $ 7,286 (1) The aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable represents the total pretax intrinsic value (the difference between the fair value of the Company's stock on the last day of each period and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of options where the fair value exceeds the exercise price) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. Restricted Stock Units The restricted stock units granted under the Plans generally vest over a four-year period, with 25% of the awards vesting after one year and the remaining awards vesting on a monthly or quarterly basis thereafter. Restricted stock units are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, except for restricted stock units with performance conditions, which are amortized using the accelerated method. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, 575,744 restricted stock units previously granted to Ticket Monster employees were modified to permit continued vesting following the Company’s sale of its controlling stake in Ticket Monster. These nonemployee restricted stock units, which require ongoing employment with Ticket Monster to vest, will be remeasured to fair value at each reporting period. The table below summarizes activity regarding unvested restricted stock units granted under the Plans for the six months ended June 30, 2015 : Restricted Stock Units Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value (per share) Unvested at December 31, 2014 41,337,927 $ 7.78 Granted 18,480,855 $ 7.10 Vested (12,345,592 ) $ 7.93 Forfeited (4,242,851 ) $ 8.00 Unvested at June 30, 2015 43,230,339 $ 7.42 Performance Share Units The Company completed its acquisition of Ticket Monster in January 2014 and approximately 2,000,000 performance share units were granted to certain key employees of that subsidiary. The vesting of these awards into shares of the Company's Class A common stock was contingent upon the subsidiary's achievement of specified financial targets over three annual performance periods for the years ending December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016 and was subject to continued employment at the end of each performance period. If the financial targets for a performance period are not achieved, no shares will be issued for that performance period. The grant date fair value of the performance share units was $8.07 per share. No shares were issued for the 2014 annual performance period because the financial targets were not met. Stock-based compensation expense was not recognized for the performance share units for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 because it was not probable that the financial targets for the remaining annual performance periods would be achieved. The performance share units were canceled upon the Company's disposition of Ticket Monster in May 2015. Restricted Stock Awards The Company has granted restricted stock awards in connection with business combinations. Compensation expense on these awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods. The table below summarizes activity regarding unvested restricted stock for the six months ended June 30, 2015 : Restricted Stock Awards Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value (per share) Unvested at December 31, 2014 34,067 $ 15.53 Granted 984,843 $ 7.42 Vested (34,067 ) $ 15.53 Forfeited — $ — Unvested at June 30, 2015 984,843 $ 7.42 |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | INCOME TAXES The Company's tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items. For the three months ended June 30, 2015 , the Company recorded income tax expense from continuing operations of $9.0 million on a pre-tax loss from continuing operations of $6.3 million . For the three months ended June 30, 2014 , the Company recorded income tax expense from continuing operations of $12.0 million on pre-tax income from continuing operations of $1.4 million . For the six months ended June 30, 2015 , the Company recorded income tax expense from continuing operations of $11.1 million on a pre-tax loss from continuing operations of $20.9 million . For the six months ended June 30, 2014 , the Company recorded income tax expense from continuing operations of $26.6 million on pre-tax losses from continuing operations of $5.9 million . The Company's U.S. statutory rate is 35% . Significant factors impacting the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 included losses from continuing operations in jurisdictions that the Company is not able to benefit due to uncertainty as to the realization of those losses, amortization of the tax effects of intercompany sales of intellectual property and nondeductible stock-based compensation expense. The Company is currently undergoing income tax audits in multiple jurisdictions. There are many factors, including factors outside of the Company's control, which influence the progress and completion of these audits. As of June 30, 2015 , the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that changes of up to $19.3 million in unrecognized tax benefits may occur within the next 12 months upon closing of income tax audits or the expiration of applicable statutes of limitations. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , unamortized tax effects of intercompany transactions of $4.2 million and $14.2 million , respectively, are included within "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2015 , the estimated future amortization of the tax effects of intercompany transactions is $4.2 million for the remainder of 2015. These amounts exclude the benefits, if any, for tax deductions in other jurisdictions that the Company may be entitled to as a result of the related intercompany transactions. See Note 2, "Discontinued Operations," for discussion of the income tax provision (benefit) from discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Fair value is defined under U.S. GAAP as 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. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. To increase the comparability of fair value measures, the following hierarchy prioritizes the inputs in valuation methodologies used to measure fair value: Level 1 - Measurements that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2 - Measurements that include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace. Level 3 - Measurements derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. These fair value measurements require significant judgment. In determining fair value, the Company uses various valuation approaches within the fair value measurement framework. The valuation methodologies used for the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value and their classification in the valuation hierarchy are summarized below: Cash equivalents - Cash equivalents primarily consist of AAA-rated money market funds with overnight liquidity and no stated maturities. The Company classified cash equivalents as Level 1 due to the short-term nature of these instruments and measured the fair value based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Available-for-sale securities and fair value option investment - The Company has investments in redeemable preferred shares and convertible debt securities issued by nonpublic entities. The Company measures the fair value of available-for-sale securities using the discounted cash flow method, which is an income approach, and the probability-weighted expected return method, which is an income approach that incorporates probability-weighted outcomes. See Note 5, Investments , for discussion of the valuation methodologies used to measure the fair value of the Company's investment in Monster LP. The Company has classified its investments in available-for-sale securities and its fair value option investment in Monster LP as Level 3 due to the lack of observable market data over fair value inputs such as cash flow projections, discount rates and probability-weightings. Increases in projected cash flows and decreases in discount rates contribute to increases in the estimated fair values of available-for-sale securities and the investment in Monster LP, whereas decreases in projected cash flows and increases in discount rates contribute to decreases in their fair values. Additionally, increases in the probabilities of favorable investment outcomes, such as a sale or initial public offering of the investee, and decreases in the probabilities of unfavorable outcomes, such as a default by the investee, contribute to increases in the estimated fair value of available-for-sale securities, whereas decreases in the probabilities of favorable investment outcomes and increases in the probabilities of unfavorable investment outcomes contribute to decreases in their fair values. Contingent consideration - The Company has contingent obligations to transfer cash to the former owners of acquired businesses if specified financial results are met over future reporting periods (i.e. earn-outs). Liabilities for contingent consideration are measured at fair value each reporting period, with the acquisition-date fair value included as part of the consideration transferred and subsequent changes in fair value are recorded in earnings within "Acquisition-related expense (benefit), net" on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company uses an income approach to value contingent consideration obligations based on future financial performance, which is determined based on the present value of probability-weighted future cash flows. The Company has generally classified the contingent consideration liabilities as Level 3 due to the lack of relevant observable market data over fair value inputs such as probability-weighting of payment outcomes. Increases in the assessed likelihood of a higher payout under a contingent consideration arrangement contribute to increases in the fair value of the related liability. Conversely, decreases in the assessed likelihood of a higher payout under a contingent consideration arrangement contribute to decreases in the fair value of the related liability. Changes in assumptions could have an impact on the payout of contingent consideration arrangements with a maximum payout of $7.0 million . The following tables summarize the Company's assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands): Fair Value Measurement at Reporting Date Using Description June 30, 2015 Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Significant Other Significant Assets: Cash equivalents $ 490,635 $ 490,635 $ — $ — Fair value option investment 122,525 — — 122,525 Available-for-sale securities: Convertible debt securities 8,026 — — 8,026 Redeemable preferred shares 4,881 — — 4,881 Liabilities: Contingent consideration 233 — — 233 Fair Value Measurement at Reporting Date Using Description December 31, 2014 Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Significant Other Significant Assets: Cash equivalents $ 440,596 $ 440,596 $ — $ — Available-for-sale securities: Convertible debt securities 2,527 — — 2,527 Redeemable preferred shares 4,910 — — 4,910 Liabilities: Contingent consideration 1,983 — — 1,983 The following table provides a roll-forward of the fair value of recurring Level 3 fair value measurements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 (in thousands): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Assets Fair value option investment: Beginning Balance $ — $ — $ — $ — Acquisition of investment in Monster LP 122,075 — 122,075 — Total gains (losses) included in earnings 450 — 450 — Ending Balance $ 122,525 $ — $ 122,525 $ — Unrealized gains (losses) still held (1) $ 450 $ — $ 450 $ — Available-for-sale securities Convertible debt securities: Beginning Balance $ 2,757 $ 2,693 $ 2,527 $ 3,174 Purchase of convertible debt security 5,000 — 5,000 — Total gains (losses) included in other comprehensive income 82 (63 ) 312 (544 ) Total gains (losses) included in other income (expense), net (2) 187 $ — 187 $ — Ending Balance $ 8,026 $ 2,630 $ 8,026 $ 2,630 Unrealized gains (losses) still held (1) $ 269 $ (63 ) $ 499 $ (544 ) Redeemable preferred shares: Beginning Balance $ 4,900 $ 4,599 $ 4,910 $ — Purchase of redeemable preferred shares — — — 4,599 Total (losses) gains included in other comprehensive income (19 ) (55 ) (29 ) (55 ) Ending Balance $ 4,881 $ 4,544 $ 4,881 $ 4,544 Unrealized (losses) gains still held (1) $ (19 ) $ (55 ) $ (29 ) $ (55 ) Liabilities Contingent Consideration: Beginning Balance $ 1,373 $ — $ 1,983 $ 606 Issuance of contingent consideration in connection with acquisitions — 4,006 — 4,006 Settlements of contingent consideration liabilities (716 ) — (716 ) (424 ) Reclass to non-fair value liabilities when no longer contingent — — (331 ) (143 ) Total gains included in earnings (3) (424 ) — (703 ) (39 ) Ending Balance $ 233 $ 4,006 $ 233 $ 4,006 Unrealized (gains) losses still held (1) $ (857 ) $ — $ (1,091 ) $ — (1) Represents the unrealized losses or gains recorded in earnings and/or other comprehensive income (loss) during the period for assets and liabilities classified as Level 3 that are still held (or outstanding) at the end of the period. (2) Represents accretion of interest income and changes in the fair value of an embedded derivative. (3) Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration liabilities are classified within "Acquisition-related expense (benefit), net" on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, including assets that are written down to fair value as a result of an impairment. The Company did not record any significant nonrecurring fair value measurements after initial recognition for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 . Estimated Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value The following table presents the carrying amounts and fair values of financial instruments that are not carried at fair value in the consolidated financial statements (in thousands): June 30, 2015 December 31, 2014 Carrying Amount Fair Value Carrying Amount Fair Value Cost method investments $ 14,586 $ 14,884 $ 15,630 $ 16,134 The fair values of the Company's cost method investments were determined using the market approach or the income approach, depending on the availability of fair value inputs such as financial projections for the investees and market multiples for comparable companies. The Company has classified the fair value measurements of its cost method investments as Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy because they involve significant unobservable inputs such as cash flow projections and discount rates. The Company's other financial instruments not carried at fair value consist primarily of short term certificates of deposit, accounts receivable, restricted cash, accounts payable, accrued merchant and supplier payables and accrued expenses. The carrying values of these assets and liabilities approximate their respective fair values as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 due to their short-term nature. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Income (Loss) Per Share of Class A and Class B Common Stock | LOSS) PER SHARE OF CLASS A AND CLASS B COMMON STOCK The Company computes net income (loss) per share of Class A and Class B common stock using the two-class method. Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares and the effect of potentially dilutive equity awards outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities consist of stock options, restricted stock units, unvested restricted stock awards and ESPP shares. The dilutive effect of these equity awards is reflected in diluted net income (loss) per share by application of the treasury stock method. The computation of the diluted net income (loss) per share of Class A common stock assumes the conversion of Class B common stock, if dilutive, while the diluted net income (loss) per share of Class B common stock does not assume the conversion of those shares. The rights, including the liquidation and dividend rights, of the holders of Class A and Class B common stock are identical, except with respect to voting. Under the two-class method, the undistributed earnings for each period are allocated based on the contractual participation rights of the Class A and Class B common shares as if the earnings for the period had been distributed. As the liquidation and dividend rights are identical, the undistributed earnings are allocated on a proportionate basis. Further, as the Company assumes the conversion of Class B common stock, if dilutive, in the computation of the diluted net income (loss) per share of Class A common stock, the undistributed earnings are equal to net income (loss) for that computation. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share of Class A and Class B common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 (in thousands, except share amounts and per share amounts): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2015 2014 2015 2014 Class A Class B Class A Class B Class A Class B Class A Class B Basic net income (loss) per share: Numerator Allocation of net loss - continuing operations $ (15,211 ) $ (56 ) $ (10,653 ) $ (39 ) $ (31,892 ) $ (114 ) $ (32,351 ) $ (115 ) Less: Allocation of net income attributable to noncontrolling interests 2,818 10 1,946 7 6,622 24 4,369 16 Allocation of net loss attributable to common stockholders - continuing operations $ (18,029 ) $ (66 ) $ (12,599 ) $ (46 ) $ (38,514 ) $ (138 ) $ (36,720 ) $ (131 ) Allocation of net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders - discontinued operations 126,725 454 (10,193 ) (37 ) 132,986 477 (23,734 ) (85 ) Allocation of net loss attributable to common stockholders $ 108,696 $ 388 $ (22,792 ) $ (83 ) $ 94,472 $ 339 $ (60,454 ) $ (216 ) Denominator Weighted-average common shares outstanding 669,230,193 2,399,976 673,138,416 2,399,976 671,606,577 2,399,976 676,558,565 2,399,976 Basic net income (loss) per share: Continuing operations $ (0.03 ) $ (0.03 ) $ (0.02 ) $ (0.02 ) $ (0.06 ) $ (0.06 ) $ (0.05 ) $ (0.05 ) Discontinued operations 0.19 0.19 (0.01 ) (0.01 ) 0.20 0.20 (0.04 ) (0.04 ) Basic net income (loss) per share $ 0.16 $ 0.16 $ (0.03 ) $ (0.03 ) $ 0.14 $ 0.14 $ (0.09 ) $ (0.09 ) Diluted net income (loss) per share: Numerator Allocation of net loss attributable to common stockholders for basic computation - continuing operations $ (18,029 ) $ (66 ) $ (12,599 ) $ (46 ) $ (38,514 ) $ (138 ) $ (36,720 ) $ (131 ) Reallocation of net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders as a result of conversion of Class B (1) — — — — — — — — Allocation of net loss attributable to common stockholders - continuing operations $ (18,029 ) $ (66 ) $ (12,599 ) $ (46 ) $ (38,514 ) $ (138 ) $ (36,720 ) $ (131 ) Allocation of net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders for basic computation - discontinued operations $ 126,725 $ 454 $ (10,193 ) $ (37 ) $ 132,986 $ 477 $ (23,734 ) $ (85 ) Reallocation of net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders as a result of conversion of Class B (1) — — — — — — — — Allocation of net loss attributable to common stockholders - discontinued operations 126,725 454 (10,193 ) (37 ) 132,986 477 (23,734 ) (85 ) Allocation of net loss attributable to common stockholders $ 108,696 $ 388 $ (22,792 ) $ (83 ) $ 94,472 $ 339 $ (60,454 ) $ (216 ) Denominator Weighted-average common shares outstanding used in basic computation 669,230,193 2,399,976 673,138,416 2,399,976 671,606,577 2,399,976 676,558,565 2,399,976 Conversion of Class B (1) — — — — — — — — Employee stock options (1) — — — — — — — — Restricted shares and RSUs (1) — — — — — — — — Weighted-average diluted shares outstanding (1) 669,230,193 2,399,976 673,138,416 2,399,976 671,606,577 2,399,976 676,558,565 2,399,976 Diluted net income (loss) per share: Continuing operations $ (0.03 ) $ (0.03 ) $ (0.02 ) $ (0.02 ) $ (0.06 ) $ (0.06 ) $ (0.05 ) $ (0.05 ) Discontinued operations 0.19 0.19 (0.01 ) (0.01 ) 0.20 0.20 (0.04 ) (0.04 ) Diluted net income (loss) per share $ 0.16 $ 0.16 $ (0.03 ) $ (0.03 ) $ 0.14 $ 0.14 $ (0.09 ) $ (0.09 ) (1) Conversion of Class B shares into Class A shares and outstanding equity awards have not been reflected in the diluted net loss per share calculation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 because the effect would be antidilutive.

Subsequent Events [Abstract] | |
Subsequent Events | SUBSEQUENT EVENTS OrderUp Acquisition On July 16, 2015, the Company acquired OrderUp, Inc. ("OrderUp") for total cash consideration of approximately $69.0 million and contingent consideration of up to $20.0 million , subject to the achievement of specified financial metrics and other conditions. OrderUp is an on-demand online and mobile food ordering and delivery marketplace based in the United States and will be reported within the Company’s North America segment beginning in the third quarter of 2015. The Company has not yet completed its valuation of the contingent consideration arrangement or its initial allocation of the acquisition price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of this filing. Groupon India Financing Transaction On August 6, 2015, the Company's subsidiary in India completed an equity financing transaction with a third party investor that obtained a majority voting interest in the entity. The Company did not receive any cash proceeds in connection with the transaction. Based on information currently available, the Company expects to recognize a pre-tax non-operating gain ranging from $13.0 million to $17.0 million , which will result from the remeasurement of the Company's retained investment in that entity to fair value upon deconsolidation. However, that estimate is subject to change upon completion of the valuation of that retained investment. Except for that non-operating gain, the deconsolidation of Groupon India will not have a significant impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. The Company has made an irrevocable election to account for its retained investment in that entity at fair value with changes in fair value reported in earnings. Increase in Lease Commitments In July 2015, the Company entered into a new lease agreement that replaced the previous lease agreement for its corporate headquarters located in Chicago, Illinois. The new lease agreement extended the term to 10 years and 4 months and expanded the square footage. The net increase (decrease) in operating lease commitments over amounts under the previous lease agreement for each of the next five years and thereafter is as follows (in thousands): 2015 $ 428 2016 (595 ) 2017 3,405 2018 3,787 2019 8,107 Thereafter 77,176 Net increase in lease payments $ 92,308 |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and include the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses of all wholly-owned subsidiaries and majority-owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control and variable interest entities for which the Company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary. Outside stockholders' interests in subsidiaries are shown on the condensed consolidated financial statements as "Noncontrolling interests." Equity investments in entities in which the Company does not have a controlling financial interest are accounted for under the equity method, the cost method, the fair value option or as available-for-sale securities, as appropriate. |
Reclassification | Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the condensed consolidated financial statements of prior periods and the accompanying notes to conform to the current period presentation. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses, and the related disclosures of contingent liabilities in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Estimates are utilized for, but not limited to, stock-based compensation, income taxes, valuation of acquired goodwill and intangible assets, investments, customer refunds, contingent liabilities and the useful lives of property, equipment and software and intangible assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. |
