Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION	DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Company Information Groupon, Inc. and its subsidiaries, which commenced operations in October 2008, is a global scaled two-sided marketplace that connects consumers to merchants by offering goods and services, generally at a discount. Consumers access those marketplaces through our mobile applications and our websites. Our operations are organized into two segments: North America and International. See Note 13, Segment Information . Unaudited Interim Financial Information We have prepared the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial reporting. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and, in our opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss), Cash Flows and Stockholders' Equity (Deficit) for the periods presented. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Principles of Consolidation The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Groupon, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, majority-owned subsidiaries over which we exercise control and variable interest entities for which we are the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Outside stockholders' interests in subsidiaries are shown on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as Noncontrolling interests. Investments in entities in which we do not have a controlling financial interest are accounted for at fair value as available-for-sale securities or at cost adjusted for observable price changes and impairments, as appropriate. Going Concern The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. ASC 205-40 Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern , requires management to assess the reporting entity's ability to continue as a going concern. In accordance with this guidance, we have evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are issued. Our net cash used in operating activities was $136.0 million and $124.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Net cash used in operating activities was $132.5 million and $151.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Cash and cash equivalents were $86.1 million as of September 30, 2023. We entered into a fourth amendment to the revolving credit agreement in March 2023, which reduced our borrowing capacity and modified certain financial covenants as described in Note 5, Financing Arrangements . The fourth amendment to the revolving credit agreement matures on May 14, 2024. The maturing credit facility together with cash outflows and operating losses indicate that we may not be able to meet our obligations over the next twelve months. These conditions and events, when considered in the aggregate, raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We are currently executing plans intended to enhance our liquidity position. These plans include, but are not limited to, completing the fully backstopped rights offering described in Note 14, Subsequent Events and monetizing certain non-core assets. In October 2023, we sold a portion of our non-controlling interest in SumUp Holdings S.a.r.l. ("SumUp") for $8.8 million as described in Note 3, Investments. We continue to consider other options to improve our liquidity, such as pursuing additional financing from both the public and private markets and monetization of certain non-core assets, including the remainder of our investment in SumUp. In addition, we expect to pursue additional cost savings initiatives under our 2022 Cost Savings Plan (as defined in Note 9, Restructuring and Related Charges) , such as, but not limited to, additional restructuring actions, renegotiating contractual arrangements with certain service providers and continuing to make elective decisions to eliminate vacant positions rather than rehire. Management will also take steps designed to minimize the risk certain payment processors will require reserves or holdback receivables. While management intends to improve our liquidity and our ability to meet our obligations through the plans described above, with the exception of the completed sale of a portion of our SumUp investment, those plans are subject to market or other conditions not within our control. Accordingly, we have concluded that these plans do not alleviate substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Estimates in our financial statements include, but are not limited to, the following: variable consideration from unredeemed vouchers; income taxes; leases; initial valuation and subsequent impairment testing of goodwill, other intangible assets and long-lived assets; investments; receivables; customer refunds and other reserves; contingent liabilities; and the useful lives of property, equipment and software and intangible assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of prior periods to conform to the current period presentation. Adoption of New Accounting Standards There were no new accounting standards adopted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Abstract]
GOODWILL AND LONG-LIVED ASSETS	GOODWILL AND LONG-LIVED ASSETS We performed an assessment in the first, second, and third quarters of 2023 and did not identify a triggering event that would have required us to test for impairment for such periods. We determined the impact to our business from the new variant of COVID-19 during the first quarter of 2022 and a downward revision of our forecast during the second quarter of 2022 required us to evaluate our goodwill and long-lived assets for impairment. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2022, we determined the carrying amount of one of our right-of-use-assets related to our 2020 Restructuring Plan may not be fully recoverable due to collectability of sublease income. For the first quarter of 2022, our interim quantitative assessment did not identify any goodwill or long-lived asset impairment. For the second quarter of 2022, we recognized $35.4 million of goodwill impairment within our International reporting unit, representing a full impairment of goodwill for that reporting unit. For the second and third quarters of 2022, we recognized long-lived asset impairment related to certain asset groups within our North America and International segments, which included impairment related to our 2020 Restructuring Plan. See details in the tables below and Note 9, Restructuring and Related Charges, for more information. In order to evaluate goodwill and long-lived assets for impairment in 2022, we compared the fair value of our two reporting units, North America and International, and our asset groups to their carrying values. In determining the fair values of our reporting units and asset groups, we used the discounted cash flow method under the income approach that uses Level 3 inputs. Goodwill As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the balance of our goodwill was $178.7 million. There was no goodwill activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. All goodwill is within our North America segment, w hich had a negative carrying value as of September 30, 2023.

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract]
INVESTMENTS	INVESTMENTS As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our carrying value in other equity investments, which relates to our non-controlling interest in SumUp, a privately-held mobile payments company, was $93.7 million and $119.5 million and our available-for-sale securities and fair value option investments had a carrying value of zero. Other equity investments represent equity investments without readily determinable fair values recorded at cost adjusted for observable price changes and impairments. During the third quarter 2023, we recorded a remeasurement of our investment in SumUp, resulting in a decline of $25.8 million based on a preliminary Share Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"). This remeasurement represents non-cash investing activity. The loss was driven by a share price reduction on a Euro basis as well as foreign currency depreciation of US dollars versus Euros. The loss on the remeasurement is classified within Other income (expense), net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. On October 6, 2023, we entered into the Purchase Agreement agreeing to sell approximately 9.4% of our shares in SumUp. Subsequently in October, the overall transaction was finalized and we received cash of $8.8 million in connection with the sale. As a result of the transaction, our non-controlling equity interest in SumUp decreased from 2.29% to 2.08%. There were no changes in fair value of our available-for-sale securities and fair value option investments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS	FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 The convertible senior notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") bear interest at a rate of 1.125% per annum, payable semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, with an annual effective interest rate of 1.83%. The 2026 Notes will mature on March 15, 2026, subject to earlier repurchase, redemption or conversion. The carrying amount of the 2026 Notes consisted of the following as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 (in thousands): September 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 Principal amount $ 230,000 $ 230,000 Less: debt discount (3,919) (5,077) Net carrying amount of liability $ 226,081 $ 224,923 We classified the fair value of the 2026 Notes as a Level 3 measurement due to the lack of observable market data over fair value inputs such as our stock price volatility over the term of the 2026 Notes and our cost of debt. The estimated fair value of the 2026 Notes as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $127.5 million and $133.1 million and was determined using a lattice model. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized interest costs on the 2026 Notes as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Contractual interest $ 647 $ 646 $ 1,941 $ 1,940 Amortization of debt discount 388 380 1,158 1,137 Total $ 1,035 $ 1,026 $ 3,099 $ 3,077 Capped Call Transactions In connection with the 2026 Notes, we entered into privately-negotiated capped call transactions. The capped call transactions cover, subject to customary adjustments, the number of shares of common stock initially underlying the 2026 Notes. The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of the 2026 Notes and/or offset any cash payments we are required to make in excess of the principal amount of converted notes, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap initially equal to $104.80 (which represents a premium of 100% over the last reported sale price of our common stock on The Nasdaq Global Select Market on March 22, 2021), subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the capped call transactions. Revolving Credit Agreement In May 2019, we entered into a second amended and restated senior secured revolving credit agreement, which matures on May 14, 2024, as amended from time to time (the "Amended Credit Agreement"). Most recently, in March 2023, we entered into a fourth amendment to the revolving credit agreement (the "Fourth Amendment" and together with the Amended Credit Agreement the "Existing Credit Agreement") to modify certain financial covenants and provide for additional flexibility in our operations, among other changes, including certain modifications to (i) our requirements to maintain a monthly minimum liquidity balance (including any undrawn amounts under the revolving credit facility) of at least $50.0 million, (ii) the calculation of EBITDA under the Existing Credit Agreement, (iii) mandatory prepayment requirements and (iv) certain affirmative covenants. In addition, the Fourth Amendment reduced our borrowing capacity under our senior secured revolving credit facility from $150.0 million to $75.0 million, which provides for the issuance of up to $75.0 million in letters of credit, provided that the sum of outstanding borrowings and letters of credit do not exceed the maximum funding commitment of $75.0 million. We deferred debt issuance costs of $4.6 million in aggregate in connection with the Existing Credit Agreement. Deferred debt issuance costs are included within Other non-current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized to interest expense over the term of the respective agreement. As of September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with the covenants under our Existing Credit Agreement. Non-compliance with the covenants under the Existing Credit Agreement may result in termination of the commitments thereunder and then any outstanding borrowings may be declared due and payable immediately. We have the right to terminate the Existing Credit Agreement or reduce the available commitments at any time. Amounts committed to outstanding borrowings and letters of credit under our Existing Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2023 and our Amended Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2022 were as follows (in thousands): September 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 Borrowings $ 46,700 $ 75,000 Letters of credit (1) 25,914 24,900 (1) Under the Existing Credit Agreement, cash collateral is required when letters of credit extend beyond the maturity date of May 14, 2024. This cash is treated as restricted cash on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Our contractual obligations and commitments and future sublease income under our contractually obligated operating subleases as of September 30, 2023 and through the date of this report, did not materially change from the amounts set forth in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We sublease a portion of 600 West Chicago to Uptake, Inc. ("Uptake"). In the first quarter of 2023, we initiated a lawsuit against Uptake in the Circuit Court of Cook County for breach of the lease agreement and that lawsuit remains pending. Legal Matters and Other Contingencies From time to time, we are party to various legal proceedings incident to the operation of our business. For example, we currently are involved in proceedings brought by merchants, employment and related matters, intellectual property infringement suits, customer lawsuits, stockholder claims relating to U.S. securities law, consumer class actions and suits alleging, among other things, violations of state consumer protection or privacy laws. On June 13, 2023, Groupon was granted final approval of a settlement that resolved four shareholder derivative lawsuits in relation to a previously settled lawsuit that alleged that Groupon and certain of its officers made materially false and/or misleading statements or omissions regarding its business, operations and prospects, specifically as it relates to reiterating its full year guidance on November 4, 2019 and the Groupon Select program. Under the settlement, Groupon agreed to undertake certain corporate reforms. The Court awarded attorneys' fees in the amount of $950,000 to Plaintiffs' counsel. That amount was covered under Groupon's insurance policies and was paid directly by Groupon's insurance carriers in July 2023. In addition, third parties have from time to time claimed, and others may claim in the future, that we have infringed their intellectual property rights. We are subject to intellectual property disputes, including patent infringement claims, and expect that we will continue to be subject to intellectual property infringement claims as our services expand in scope and complexity. In the past, we have litigated such claims, and we are presently involved in several patent infringement and other intellectual property-related claims, including pending litigation or trademark disputes relating to, for example, our Goods category, some of which could involve potentially substantial claims for damages or injunctive relief. We may also become more vulnerable to third-party claims as laws such as the Digital Millennium Copyright Act are interpreted by the courts, and we become subject to laws in jurisdictions where the underlying laws with respect to the potential liability of online intermediaries are either unclear or less favorable. We believe that additional lawsuits alleging that we have violated patent, copyright or trademark laws may be filed against us. Intellectual property claims, whether meritorious or not, are time consuming and often costly to resolve, could require expensive changes in our methods of doing business or the goods we sell, or could require us to enter into costly royalty or licensing agreements. We also are subject to consumer claims or lawsuits relating to alleged violations of consumer protection or privacy rights and statutes, some of which could involve potentially substantial claims for damages, including statutory or punitive damages. Consumer and privacy-related claims or lawsuits, whether meritorious or not, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation, damage awards, fines and penalties, injunctive relief or increased costs of doing business through adverse judgment or settlement, or require us to change our business practices, sometimes in expensive ways. We are also subject to, or in the future may become subject to, a variety of regulatory inquiries, audits, and investigations across the jurisdictions where we conduct our business, including, for example, inquiries related to consumer protection, employment matters and/or hiring practices, marketing practices, tax, unclaimed property and privacy rules and regulations. Any regulatory actions against us, whether meritorious or not, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation, damage awards, fines and penalties, injunctive relief or increased costs of doing business through adverse judgment or settlement, require us to change our business practices in expensive ways, require significant amounts of management time, result in the diversion of significant operational resources, materially damage our brand or reputation, or otherwise harm our business. We establish an accrued liability for loss contingencies related to legal and regulatory matters when the loss is both probable and reasonably estimable. Those 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 certain of the matters 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. However, we believe that the amount of reasonably possible losses in excess of the amounts accrued for those matters would not have a material adverse effect on our business, Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, results of operations or cash flows. Our 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 and other regulatory matters can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors. Indemnifications In connection with the disposition of our operations in Latin America in 2017, we recorded $5.4 million in indemnification liabilities for certain tax and other matters upon the closing of the transactions as an adjustment to the net loss on the dispositions within discontinued operations at their fair value. We estimated the indemnification liabilities using a probability-weighted expected cash flow approach. Our remaining indemnification liabilities were $2.8 million as of September 30, 2023. We estimate that the total amount of obligations that are reasonably possible to arise under the indemnifications in excess of amounts accrued as of September 30, 2023 is approximately $11.7 million. In the normal course of business to facilitate transactions related to our operations, we indemnify certain parties, including employees, lessors, service providers, merchants and counterparties to investment agreements and asset and stock purchase agreements with respect to various matters. We have 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. We are also subject to increased exposure to various claims as a result of our divestitures and acquisitions, particularly in cases where we are entering into new businesses in connection with such acquisitions. We may also become more vulnerable to claims as we expand the range and scope of our services and are subject to laws in jurisdictions where the underlying laws with respect to potential liability are either unclear or less favorable. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with our officers, directors and underwriters, and our bylaws contain similar indemnification obligations that cover officers, directors, employees and other agents. Except as noted above, 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 we have made under these agreements have not had a material impact on our operating results, financial position or cash flows.

STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (DEFICIT) AND COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS	STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (DEFICIT) AND COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS Groupon, Inc. Incentive Plan In August 2011, we established the Groupon, Inc. 2011 Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the "2011 Plan"), under which options, restricted stock units and performance stock units for up to 13,775,000 shares of common stock are authorized for future issuance to employees, consultants and directors. The 2011 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. As of September 30, 2023, 2,728,411 shares of common stock were available for future issuance under the 2011 Plan. Restricted Stock Units The restricted stock units granted under the 2011 Plan ("Restricted Stock Units") generally have vesting periods between one The table below summarizes Restricted Stock Unit activity for employees and non-employees under the 2011 Plan for the nine months ended September 30, 2023: Restricted Stock Units Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value (per unit) Unvested at December 31, 2022 2,876,089 $ 19.33 Granted 601,314 5.26 Vested (1,342,961) 19.32 Forfeited (1,210,548) 15.79 Unvested at September 30, 2023 923,894 $ 11.32 As of September 30, 2023, $6.1 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested Restricted Stock Units are expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of 0.85 years. Stock Options On March 30, 2023, we issued 3,500,000 units of stock options with a per share value of $0.95, a strike price of $6.00 and vesting over two years. The exercise price of stock options granted is equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. The contractual term for these stock options expires three years from the grant date. The fair value of stock options on the grant date is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The fair value of stock options granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model. Expected volatility is based on Groupon's historical volatility over the estimated expected life of the stock options. The expected term represents the period of time the stock options are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free interest rate is based on yields on U.S. Treasury STRIPS with maturity similar to the estimated expected life of the stock options. The weighted-average assumptions for stock options granted are outlined in the following table: Dividend yield 0.0 % Risk-free interest rate 4.1 % Expected term (in years) 2 Expected volatility 78.2 % The table below summarizes stock option activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2023: Options Weighted-Average Exercise Price Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands) Outstanding at December 31, 2022 — $ — — $ — Granted 3,500,000 6.00 3.00 — Exercised (437,500) 6.00 Outstanding at September 30, 2023 2,625,000 6.00 2.5 24,465 Vested and exercisable at September 30, 2023 437,500 $ 6.00 2.5 $ 4,078 As of September 30, 2023, there was $2.5 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to unvested stock options granted under the 2011 Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years. The total fair value of shares vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $0.8 million. Performance Shares Units We have previously granted performance share units under the 2011 Plan that vest in shares of our common stock upon the achievement of financial and operational targets specified in the respective award agreement ("Performance Share Units"). Our existing Performance Share Units are subject to continued service through the period dictated by the award and certification by the Compensation Committee of the Board that the specified performance conditions have been achieved.

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
REVENUE RECOGNITION	REVENUE RECOGNITION Refer to Note 13, Segment Information , for revenue summarized by reportable segment and category for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Customer Credits We issue credits to customers that can be applied to future purchases through our online marketplaces. Credits are primarily issued as consideration for refunds and, to a lesser extent, for customer relationship purposes. The following table summarizes the activity in the liability for customer credits for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 (in thousands): Customer Credits Balance as of December 31, 2022 $ 36,220 Credits issued 62,685 Credits redeemed (1) (65,944) Breakage revenue recognized (7,680) Foreign currency translation (35) Balance as of September 30, 2023 $ 25,246 (1) Customer credits can be redeemed through our online marketplaces for goods or services provided by a third-party merchant and service revenue is recognized on a net basis as the difference between the carrying amount of the customer credit liability derecognized and the amount due to the merchant for the related transaction. Customer credits are typically used within one year of issuance. Costs of Obtaining Contracts Incremental costs to obtain contracts with third-party merchants, such as sales commissions, are deferred and recognized over the expected period of the merchant arrangement, generall y from 12 to 18 months. De ferred contract acquisition costs are presented in Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Other non-current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, deferred contract acquisition costs were $4.0 million and $5.9 million. The amortization of deferred contract acquisition costs is classified within Selling, general and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. We amortized $1.8 million and $2.7 million of deferred contract acquisition costs for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and $6.2 million and $8.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Allowance for Expected Credit Losses on Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable primarily represents the net cash due from credit card and other payment processors and from merchants and performance marketing networks for commissions earned on consumer purchases. We establish an allowance for expected credit losses on accounts receivable based on identifying the following customer risk characteristics: size, type of customer and payment terms offered in the normal course of business. Receivables with similar risk characteristics are grouped into pools. For each pool, we consider the historical credit loss experience, current economic conditions, bankruptcy filings, published or estimated credit default rates, age of the receivable and any recoveries in assessing the lifetime expected credit losses. The following table summarizes the activity in the allowance for expected credit losses on accounts receivable for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 (in thousands): Allowance for Expected Credit Losses Balance as of December 31, 2022 $ 4,538 Change in provision (853) Write-offs (631) Foreign currency translation 15 Balance as of September 30, 2023 $ 3,069 Variable Consideration for Unredeemed Vouchers

Restructuring and Related Activities [Abstract]
RESTRUCTURING AND RELATED CHARGES	RESTRUCTURING AND RELATED CHARGES In August 2022 and April 2020, we initiated Board-approved restructuring plans. Costs incurred related to the restructuring plans are classified as Restructuring and related charges on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The restructuring activities are summarized by plan in the sections below. 2022 Restructuring Plan In August 2022, we initiated a multi-phase cost savings plan designed to reduce our expense structure to align with our go-forward business and financial objectives (the "2022 Cost Savings Plan"). The 2022 Cost Savings Plan included a restructuring plan, approved by our Board on August 5, 2022 (the “2022 Restructuring Plan”). The 2022 Restructuring Plan, including the first phase initiated August 2022, second phase initiated January 2023 and the third phase initiated July 2023 is expected to include an overall reduction of approximately 1,150 positions globally, with the majority of these reductions completed as of March 31, 2023 and the remainder expected to occur by the end of 2024. In connection with these actions, we expect to record total pre-tax charges of $23.6 million to $30.6 million. A majority of the pre-tax charges are expected to be paid in cash and relate to employee severance and compensation benefits, with an immaterial amount of charges related to other exit costs. We have incurred total pre-tax charges of $20.5 million since the inception of the 2022 Restructuring Plan. The following tables summarize activity by segment related to the 2022 Restructuring Plan for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 Employee Severance and Benefit Costs (Credits) (1) Other Exit Costs Total Restructuring Charges (Credits) North America $ 690 $ — $ 690 International 652 — 652 Consolidated $ 1,342 $ — $ 1,342 (1) The employee severance and benefits costs for the three months ended September 30, 2023 are related to the termination of approxim ately 70 e mployees.

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Employee Severance and Benefit Costs (Credits) Other Exit Costs Total Restructuring Charges (Credits) North America $ 4,600 $ 158 $ 4,758 International 1,436 — 1,436 Consolidated $ 6,036 $ 158 $ 6,194 The following table summarizes restructuring liability activity for the 2022 Restructuring Plan (in thousands): Employee Severance and Benefit Costs Other Exit Costs Total Balance as of December 31, 2022 $ 175 $ — $ 175 Charges payable in cash 9,799 1,037 10,836 Cash payments (9,394) (738) (10,132) Foreign currency translation 55 — 55 Balance as of September 30, 2023 (1) $ 635 $ 299 $ 934 (1) Substantially all of the remaining cash payments for costs related to the 2022 Restructuring Plan are expected to be disbursed by the end of 2024. 2020 Restructuring Plan In April 2020, the Board approved a multi-phase restructuring plan related to our previously-announced strategic shift and as part of the cost cutting measures implemented in response to the impact of COVID-19 on our business (the "2020 Restructuring Plan"). We have incurred total pretax charges of $108.9 million since the inception of the 2020 Restructuring Plan. Our actions under this plan were substantially completed by December 31, 2021, and our current and future charges or credits will be from changes in estimates. Our 2020 Restructuring Plan included workforce reductions of approximately 1,600 positions globally, the exit or discontinuation of the use of certain leases and other assets, impairments of our right-of-use and other long-lived assets and the exit of our operations in New Zealand and Japan. The following tables summarize activity by segment related to the 2020 Restructuring Plan for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 Employee Severance and Benefit Costs (Credits) Legal and Advisory Costs (Credits) Lease-related Charges (Credits) Total Restructuring Charges (Credits) North America $ 44 $ 5 $ 660 $ 709 International (214) (49) 440 177 Consolidated $ (170) $ (44) $ 1,100 $ 886 Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 Employee Severance and Benefit Costs (Credits) Legal and Advisory Costs (Credits) Right-of-Use Asset Impairments and Lease-related Charges (Credits) Total Restructuring Charges (Credits) North America $ — $ (1) $ (1,578) $ (1,579) International 121 28 148 297 Consolidated $ 121 $ 27 $ (1,430) $ (1,282) Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 Employee Severance and Benefit Costs (Credits) Legal and Advisory Costs (Credits) Lease-related Charges (Credits) Total Restructuring Charges (Credits) North America $ 44 $ 7 $ 1,204 $ 1,255 International (2,696) (97) 1,035 (1,758) Consolidated $ (2,652) $ (90) $ 2,239 $ (503) Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Employee Severance and Benefit Costs (Credits) Legal and Advisory Costs (Credits) Right-of-Use Asset Impairments and Lease-related Charges (Credits) Total Restructuring Charges (Credits) North America $ 1 $ 129 $ (404) $ (274) International 305 89 1,849 2,243 Consolidated $ 306 $ 218 $ 1,445 $ 1,969 As a part of our 2020 Restructuring Plan, we terminated or modified several of our leases. In other cases, we vacated our leased facilities, and some of those facilities are being actively marketed for sublease or we are in negotiations with the landlord to potentially terminate or modify those leases. We recognized impairment related to those leases of $1.8 million and $2.9 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. See Note 2, Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets , for additional information. In addition, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized a gain of $4.5 million for one of our previously impaired leases in our North America segment due to our reassessment of our 600 West Chicago lease given our option to early terminate. In January 2023, we exercised our option to early terminate our lease at 600 West Chicago, now expiring on January 31, 2024, which required us to pay a penalty of $9.6 million with our early termination notice. Prior to exercising our option to early terminate, the expiration of 600 West Chicago was January 31, 2026. Rent expense, including amortization of the right-of-use asset and accretion of the operating lease liability, sublease income, termination and modification gains and losses, and other variable lease costs related to the leased facilities vacated as part of our restructuring plan are presented within Restructuring and related charges in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The current and non-current liabilities associated with these leases continue to be presented within Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and Operating lease obligations in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table summarizes restructuring liability activity for the 2020 Restructuring Plan (in thousands): Employee Severance and Benefit Costs Other Exit Costs Total Balance as of December 31, 2022 $ 4,306 $ 301 $ 4,607 Charges payable in cash and changes in estimate (1) (2,652) (90) (2,742) Cash payments (727) (113) (840) Foreign currency translation 12 2 14 Balance as of September 30, 2023 (2) $ 939 $ 100 $ 1,039 (1) The credit recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 primarily relates to the release of our estimated accrual for certain severance benefits upon expiration of the eligible payout period. (2) Substantially all of the remaining cash payments for the 2020 Restructuring Plan costs are expected to be disbursed by the end of 2023.

INCOME TAXES

INCOME TAXES	9 Months Ended

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	INCOME TAXES Our income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items. Provision (benefit) for income taxes and Income (loss) from operations before provision (benefit) for income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 were as follows (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Provision (benefit) for income taxes $ 817 $ (4,328) $ 4,258 $ (4,605) Income (loss) before provision (benefit) for income taxes $ (39,989) $ (59,871) $ (77,165) $ (184,750) Our U.S. Federal income tax rate is 21%. The primary factor impacting the effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was the pretax losses incurred in jurisdictions that have valuation allowances against their net deferred tax assets. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we were also impacted by the reduction to our estimated annual tax rate due to an increase in expected annual losses. As of September 30, 2022, we had a valuation allowance in the U.S. against capital losses, deferred tax assets that will convert into capital losses upon reversal, and state credits that we were not expecting to be able to realize. We recorded a valuation allowance against the remaining U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets in Q4 2022. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we continue to maintain a full valuation allowance against all U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets. We expect that our consolidated effective tax rate in future periods will continue to differ significantly from the U.S. federal income tax rate as a result of our tax obligations in jurisdictions with profits and valuation allowances in jurisdictions with losses. We are currently undergoing income tax audits in multiple jurisdictions. It is likely that the examination phase of some of those audits will conclude in the next 12 months. There are many factors, including factors outside of our control, which influence the progress and completion of those audits. We are subject to claims for tax assessments by foreign jurisdictions, including a proposed assess ment for $115.7 million, inclusive of estimated incremental interest from the original assessment. We believe that the assessment, which primarily relates to transfer pricing on transactions occurring in 2011, is without merit and we intend to vigorously defend ourselves in that matter. There could be potential increases in our liabilities for uncertain tax positions from the ultimate resolution of that assessment. We believe it is reasonably possible that reductions of up to $7.5 million in unrecognized tax benefits may occur within the 12 months following September 30, 2023 upon closing of income tax audits or the expiration of applicable statutes of limitations. In general, it is our practice and intention to reinvest the earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiaries in those operations or remit such earnings in a tax-efficient manner. An actual repatriation from our non-U.S. subsidiaries could be subject to foreign and U.S. state income taxes. Aside from limited exceptions for which the related deferred tax liabilities recognized as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 are immaterial, we do not intend to distribute earnings of foreign subsidiaries for which we have an excess of the financial reporting basis over the tax basis of our investments and therefore have not recorded any deferred taxes related to such amounts. The actual tax cost resulting from a distribution would depend on income tax laws and circumstances at the time of distribution. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred tax liability related to the excess of the financial reporting basis over the tax basis of our foreign subsidiaries is not practical due to the complexities associated with the calculation.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS	9 Months Ended

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. 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. In determining fair value, we use valuation approaches within the fair value measurement framework. We have fair value option investments and available-for-sale securities that we measure using the income approach. We have classified these investments as Level 3 due to the lack of observable market data over fair value inputs such as cash flow projections and discount rates. There was no material activity in the fair value of recurring Level 3 fair value measurements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. 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 or modified due to an observable price change in an orderly transaction. We recognized a non-cash remeasurement of our investment in SumUp of $25.8 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. See Note 3, Investments , for additional information. We recognized $35.4 million in non-cash impairment charges related to goodwill for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. We also recognized $1.8 million and $11.8 million in non-cash impairment charges related to long-lived assets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, of which $1.8 million and $2.9 million was included in Restructuring and related charges on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 2, Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets and Note 9, Restructuring and Related Charges , for additional information. We did not record any other significant nonrecurring fair value measurements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE	9 Months Ended

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE	INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE 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 securities outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities include stock options, restricted stock units, performance share units, ESPP shares, capped call transactions and convertible senior notes. If dilutive, those potentially dilutive securities are reflected in diluted net income (loss) per share using the treasury stock method, except for the convertible senior notes, which are subject to the if-converted method. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands, except share amounts and per share amounts): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share: Numerator Net income (loss) $ (40,806) $ (55,543) $ (81,423) $ (180,145) Less: Net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests 552 680 1,689 2,157 Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders (41,358) (56,223) (83,112) (182,302) Denominator Weighted-average common shares outstanding 31,500,489 30,307,734 31,039,668 30,070,598 Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share: $ (1.31) $ (1.86) $ (2.68) $ (6.06) The following weighted-average potentially dilutive instruments are not included in the diluted net income (loss) per share calculations above because they would have had an antidilutive effect on the net income (loss) per share: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Restricted stock units 1,108,379 2,223,826 1,695,383 2,448,348 Stock options 3,309,783 — 2,282,890 — Other stock-based compensation awards (1) 7,923 94,690 35,078 102,406 Convertible Senior notes due 2026 (2) 3,376,400 3,376,400 3,376,400 3,376,400 Capped call transactions 3,376,400 3,376,400 3,376,400 3,376,400 Total 11,178,885 9,071,316 10,766,151 9,303,554 (1) We had outstanding performance share units as of September 30, 2023 and 2022 that were eligible to vest into shares of common stock subject to the achievement of specified performance or market conditions. Contingently-issuable shares are excluded from the computation of diluted income (loss) per share if, based on current period results, the shares would not be issuable if the end of the reporting period were the end of the contingency period. As of September 30, 2023, there were up to 724,487 shares of common stock issuable upon vesting of outstanding Performance Share Units that were excluded from the table above as the performance conditions were not satisfied as of the end of the period. (2) We apply the if-converted method in computing the effect of our convertible senior notes on diluted net income (loss) per share, whereby the numerator of our diluted net income (loss) per share computations is adjusted for interest expense, net of tax, and the denominator is adjusted for the number of shares into which the convertible senior notes could be converted. The effect is only included in the calculation of income (loss) per share for those instruments for which it would reduce income (loss) per share. See Note 5, Financing Arrangements , for additional information.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
SEGMENT INFORMATION	SEGMENT INFORMATION The segment information reported in the tables below reflects the operating results that are regularly reviewed by our chief operating decision maker to assess performance and make resource allocation decisions. Our operations are organized into two segments: North America and International. Our measure of segment profitability is contribution profit, defined as gross profit less marketing expense, which is consistent with how management reviews the operating results of the segments. Contribution profit measures the amount of marketing investment needed to generate gross profit. Other operating expenses are excluded from contribution profit as management does not review those expenses by segment. The following table summarizes revenue by reportable segment and category for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands): Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 North America revenue: Local $ 88,558 $ 97,843 $ 255,412 $ 296,233 Goods 3,801 5,978 13,646 20,476 Travel 2,577 4,065 10,971 13,465 Total North America revenue (1) 94,936 107,886 280,029 330,174 International revenue: Local 26,900 30,089 79,539 95,350 Goods 3,054 4,459 11,029 16,986 Travel 1,584 1,956 6,597 8,416 Total International revenue (1) $ 31,538 $ 36,504 $ 97,165 $ 120,752 (1) North America includes revenue from the United States of $93.9 million and $105.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 and $276.0 million and $323.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS	SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Rights Offering On November 7, 2023, the Board approved an $80.0 million fully backstopped rights offering (the “Rights Offering”) to our stockholders of record of our common stock, as of the close of business on November 20, 2023. To be able to execute the Rights Offering, the Existing Credit Agreement was amended. On November 7, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to its Existing Credit Agreement to provide for additional flexibility with regards to the Rights Offering. Specifically, the Company entered into a Fifth Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Existing Credit Agreement. The Amendment effects certain modifications to the definition of the term “Change in Control” contained in the Existing Credit Agreement and adds the term “Disqualified Equity Interest” to the Existing Credit Agreement, among other changes. In addition, the Amendment modifies the restricted payment covenant to permit the Company to declare and pay dividends with respect to its Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Equity Interests) payable solely in additional shares of its Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Equity Interests). The Rights Offering will be made through the distribution of non-transferable subscription rights to purchase shares of Common Stock at a subscription price of $11.30 per share and otherwise on such terms and subject to such conditions as may be required to comply with any applicable Nasdaq Global Market stock exchange rules and regulations. The Rights Offering is expected to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 17, 2024 (such date, as amended or modified, the "Expiration Date"), though we reserve the right to extend, amend or terminate the planned Rights Offering, subject to certain conditions, at any time. We expect to receive gross proceeds of $80.0 million before expenses related to the Rights Offering. The Rights Offering is fully backstopped by Pale Fire Capital SICAV a.s. (the “Backstop Party”), an entity affiliated with (i) Dusan Senkypl, the Company’s Interim Chief Executive Officer and a member of the Board, and (ii) Jan Barta, a member of the Board. The Backstop Party has a binding commitment to (i) fully exercise its pro rata subscription right prior to the Expiration Date of the Rights Offering and (ii) fully purchase any and all unsubscribed shares in the Rights Offering following the Expiration Date at the same price and on the same terms and conditions as other participants in the Rights Offering. SumUp Sale On November 9, 2023, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement pursuant to which it has agreed to sell shares representing approximately 11.7% of its approximate 2.08% interest in SumUp to other investors in SumUp for an aggregate cash purchase price of €9.4 million (the “Purchase Agreement”) which, will be worth approximately $10 million as of the date of this filing. The Purchase Agreement was entered into in connection with a transaction in which several other investors in SumUp also agreed to sell shares on the same economic terms as the Company and at the same price as agreed to on October 6, 2023. The Company expects the transaction to be completed on or before November 27, 2023. There can be no assurances as to whether or when the sale will be consummated.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Groupon, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, majority-owned subsidiaries over which we exercise control and variable interest entities for which we are the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Outside stockholders' interests in subsidiaries are shown on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as Noncontrolling interests. Investments in entities in which we do not have a controlling financial interest are accounted for at fair value as available-for-sale securities or at cost adjusted for observable price changes and impairments, as appropriate. Going Concern The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. ASC 205-40 Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern , requires management to assess the reporting entity's ability to continue as a going concern. In accordance with this guidance, we have evaluated whether there are conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are issued. Our net cash used in operating activities was $136.0 million and $124.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Net cash used in operating activities was $132.5 million and $151.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. Cash and cash equivalents were $86.1 million as of September 30, 2023. We entered into a fourth amendment to the revolving credit agreement in March 2023, which reduced our borrowing capacity and modified certain financial covenants as described in Note 5, Financing Arrangements . The fourth amendment to the revolving credit agreement matures on May 14, 2024. The maturing credit facility together with cash outflows and operating losses indicate that we may not be able to meet our obligations over the next twelve months. These conditions and events, when considered in the aggregate, raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We are currently executing plans intended to enhance our liquidity position. These plans include, but are not limited to, completing the fully backstopped rights offering described in Note 14, Subsequent Events and monetizing certain non-core assets. In October 2023, we sold a portion of our non-controlling interest in SumUp Holdings S.a.r.l. ("SumUp") for $8.8 million as described in Note 3, Investments. We continue to consider other options to improve our liquidity, such as pursuing additional financing from both the public and private markets and monetization of certain non-core assets, including the remainder of our investment in SumUp. In addition, we expect to pursue additional cost savings initiatives under our 2022 Cost Savings Plan (as defined in Note 9, Restructuring and Related Charges) , such as, but not limited to, additional restructuring actions, renegotiating contractual arrangements with certain service providers and continuing to make elective decisions to eliminate vacant positions rather than rehire. Management will also take steps designed to minimize the risk certain payment processors will require reserves or holdback receivables. While management intends to improve our liquidity and our ability to meet our obligations through the plans described above, with the exception of the completed sale of a portion of our SumUp investment, those plans are subject to market or other conditions not within our control. Accordingly, we have concluded that these plans do not alleviate substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Estimates in our financial statements include, but are not limited to, the following: variable consideration from unredeemed vouchers; income taxes; leases; initial valuation and subsequent impairment testing of goodwill, other intangible assets and long-lived assets; investments; receivables; customer refunds and other reserves; contingent liabilities; and the useful lives of property, equipment and software and intangible assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of prior periods to conform to the current period presentation.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards	Adoption of New Accounting Standards There were no new accounting standards adopted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Contingently-issuable shares are excluded from the computation of diluted income (loss) per share if, based on current period results, the shares would not be issuable if the end of the reporting period were the end of the contingency period. As of September 30, 2023, there were up to 724,487 shares of common stock issuable upon vesting of outstanding Performance Share Units that were excluded from the table above as the performance conditions were not satisfied as of the end of the period. (2) We apply the if-converted method in computing the effect of our convertible senior notes on diluted net income (loss) per share, whereby the numerator of our diluted net income (loss) per share computations is adjusted for interest expense, net of tax, and the denominator is adjusted for the number of shares into which the convertible senior notes could be converted. The effect is only included in the calculation of income (loss) per share for those instruments for which it would reduce income (loss) per share. See Note 5, Financing Arrangements , for additional information.
