Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Business Description and Basis of Presentation [Text Block]	1	ORGANIZATION
	Through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Algodon Wines & Luxury Development Group, Inc. (“Company”, “Algodon Partners”, “AWLD”), a Delaware corporation that was incorporated on April 5, 1999, currently invests in, develops and operates international real estate projects.
	As wholly-owned subsidiaries of AWLD, InvestProperty Group, LLC (“IPG”) and Algodon Global Properties, LLC (“AGP”) operate as holding companies that invest in, develop and operate global real estate and other lifestyle businesses such as wine production and distribution, golf, tennis, and restaurants. AWLD operates its properties through its ALGODON® brand. IPG and AGP have invested in two ALGODON® brand projects located in Argentina. The first project is Algodon Mansion, a Buenos Aires-based luxury boutique hotel property that opened in 2010 and is owned by the Company’s subsidiary, The Algodon – Recoleta, SRL (“TAR”). The second project is the redevelopment, expansion and repositioning of a Mendoza-based winery and golf resort property now called Algodon Wine Estates (“AWE”), the integration of adjoining wine producing properties, and the subdivision of a portion of this property for residential development.
	AWLD’s wholly owned subsidiary, DPEC Capital, Inc. (“CAP”), is a broker-dealer registered with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”) and clears its securities transactions on a fully disclosed basis with another broker-dealer. CAP provides brokerage securities trading; private equity and venture capital investments; and advisory and other financial services to customers. CAP, in its normal course of business, enters into and may be a party to private equity transactions with AWLD and certain related affiliates (see Note 8 – Investments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Note 15 – Related Party Transactions, Note 17 – Stockholders’ Equity – Warrants and Note 19 – Subsequent Events – Warrants).
	AWLD’s wholly owned subsidiary Algodon Europe, Ltd., is a United Kingdom wine distribution company. AWLD also owns approximately 96.5% of Mercari Communications Group, Ltd. (“Mercari”), a public shell corporation that is current in its SEC reporting obligations and is a ready target for merger or sale. Mercari is a consolidated subsidiary of the Company and the noncontrolling interest is negligible.

Going Concern And Management's Liquidity Plans [Abstract]
Going Concern And Management's Liquidity Plans [Text Block]		2	GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S LIQUIDITY PLANS
	The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset amounts or the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company incurred losses of $9,063,427 and $8,792,830 during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Cash used in operating activities was $7,052,172 and $4,543,728 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. In addition, based upon projected revenues and expenses, the Company believes that it may not have sufficient funds to operate for the next twelve months. The aforementioned factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
	The Company needs to raise additional capital in order to expand its business objectives. The Company funded its operations for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, primarily through the sale of preferred stock for net proceeds of $5,532,877 and $4,083,275, respectively (See Note 17 – Stockholders’ Equity), common stock for proceeds of $2,446,697, promissory notes for net proceeds (repayments) of $(6,019) and $348,028, respectively, (See Note 12 – Loans Payable) and proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $49,959 and $0, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company repaid convertible promissory notes of $729,022 and $72,500, respectively (see Note 11 – Convertible Debt Obligations). During the first quarter of 2015, the Company received cash proceeds for the sale of its common stock of $1,244,430. The Company presently has enough cash on hand to sustain its operations on a month to month basis. Historically, the Company has been successful in raising funds to support its capital needs. Management believes that it will be successful in obtaining additional financing; however, no assurance can be provided that the Company will be able to do so. There is no assurance that these funds will be sufficient to enable the Company to attain profitable operations or continue as a going concern. To the extent that the Company is unsuccessful and notwithstanding any request the Company may make, the Company’s remaining debt holders do not agree to convert their notes into equity or extend the maturity dates of their notes, the Company may need to curtail its operations and implement a plan to extend payables and reduce overhead until sufficient additional capital is raised to support further operations. There can be no assurance that such a plan will be successful. Such a plan could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations, and ultimately the Company could be forced to discontinue its operations, liquidate and/or seek reorganization in bankruptcy. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

SUMMARY_OF_SIGNIFICANT_ACCOUNT

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	12 Months Ended
	Dec. 31, 2014
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]		3	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
	Principles of Consolidation
	The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of Algodon Wines & Luxury Development Group, Inc. and the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
	Use of Estimates
	To prepare financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the Company must make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts in the financial statements, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The significant estimates and assumptions of the Company are the valuation of equity instruments, the useful lives of property and equipment and reserves associated with the realizability of certain assets.
	Foreign Currency Translation
	The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the United States Dollar. The functional currencies of the Company’s operating subsidiaries are their local currencies (United States Dollar, Argentine Peso and British Pound). There has been a steady devaluation of the Argentine Peso relative to the United States Dollar in recent years. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the balance sheet date (8.5411 and 6.5049 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively) and revenue and expense accounts are translated at a weighted average exchange rate for the period or for the year then ended (8.1095 and 5.4714 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively). Resulting translation adjustments are made directly to accumulated other comprehensive income. Losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of $223,904 and $259,864 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, are recognized in operating results in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company engages in foreign currency denominated transactions with customers and suppliers, as well as between subsidiaries with different functional currencies.
	A highly inflationary economy is defined as an economy with a cumulative inflation rate of approximately 100 percent or more over a three-year period. If a country’s economy is classified as highly inflationary, the functional currency of the foreign entity operating in that country must be remeasured to the functional currency of the reporting entity. The official cumulative inflation rate for Argentina over the last three years approximated 44%, although the International Monetary Fund has concerns regarding the accuracy of the official data.
	Accounts Receivable
	Accounts receivable primarily represent receivables from hotel guests who occupy rooms and wine sales to commercial customers. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts when it determines that it is more likely than not a specific account will not be collected. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $10,530 and $20,215 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Bad debt expense for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $41,299 and $35,591, respectively. Write-offs of accounts receivable for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $21,424 and $3,154, respectively.
	Inventory
	Inventories are comprised primarily of vineyard in process, wine in process, finished wine, plus food and beverage items and are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost being determined on the first-in, first-out method. Costs associated with winemaking, and other costs associated with the creation of products for resale, are recorded as inventory. Vineyard in process represents the monthly capitalization of farming expenses (including farming labor costs, usage of farming supplies and depreciation of the vineyard and farming equipment) associated with the growing of grape, olive and other fruits during the farming year which culminates with the February/March harvest. Wine in process represents the capitalization of costs during the winemaking process (including the transfer of grape costs from vineyard in process, winemaking labor costs and depreciation of winemaking fixed assets, including tanks, barrels, equipment, tools and the winemaking building). Finished wines represents wine available for sale and includes the transfer of costs from wine in process once the wine is bottled and labeled. Other inventory represents olives, other fruits, golf equipment and restaurant food.
	In accordance with general practice within the wine industry, wine inventories are included in current assets, although a portion of such inventories may be aged for periods longer than one year. As required, the Company reduces the carrying value of inventories that are obsolete or in excess of estimated usage to estimated net realizable value. The Company’s estimates of net realizable value are based on analyses and assumptions including, but not limited to, historical usage, future demand and market requirements. Reductions to the carrying value of inventories are recorded in cost of sales. If future demand and/or pricing for the Company’s products are less than previously estimated, then the carrying value of the inventories may be required to be reduced, resulting in additional expense and reduced profitability. Inventory write-downs recorded during 2014 and 2013 were negligible.
	Property and Equipment
	Investments in property and equipment are recorded at cost. These assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:
	Buildings	10 - 30 years
	Furniture and fixtures	3 - 10 years
	Vineyards	7 - 20 years
	Machinery and equipment	3 - 20 years
	Leasehold improvements	3 - 5 years
	Computer hardware and software	3 - 5 years
	The Company capitalizes internal vineyard improvement costs when developing new vineyards or replacing or improving existing vineyards. These costs consist primarily of the costs of the vines and expenditures related to labor and materials to prepare the land and construct vine trellises. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operating expense as incurred. The cost of properties sold or otherwise disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts at the time of disposal and resulting gains and losses are included as a component of operating income. Real estate development consists of costs incurred to ready the land for sale, including primarily costs of infrastructure as well as master plan development and associated professional fees. Such costs will be allocated to individual lots proportionately based on square meters and those allocated costs will be derecognized upon the sale of individual lots. Given that they are not currently in service, capitalized real estate development costs are currently not being depreciated. Land is an inexhaustible asset and is not depreciated.
	Stock-based Compensation
	The Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award. For employees and directors, the fair value of the award is measured on the grant date and for non-employees, the fair value of the award is generally re-measured on financial reporting dates and vesting dates until the service period is complete. The fair value amount of the shares expected to ultimately vest is then recognized over the period services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. The estimation of stock-based awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent actual results or updated estimates differ from original estimates, such amounts are recorded as a cumulative adjustment in the period estimates are revised. The Company considers many factors when estimating expected forfeitures, including types of awards, employee class, and historical experience.
	Concentrations
	The Company maintains cash with major financial institutions. Cash held in US bank institutions is currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 at each institution. No similar insurance or guarantee exists for cash held in Argentina bank accounts. There were aggregate uninsured cash balances of $135,098 and $135,335 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	During 2013, a single investor/lender comprised 65% of the $5,556,820 of gross proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt obligations and preferred stock.
	See Note 15 – Related Party Transactions – Liabilities for details associated with a liability concentration.
	Foreign Operations
	The following summarizes key financial metrics associated with the Company’s foreign operations (these financial metrics are immaterial for the Company’s operations in the United Kingdom):

	Net Loss- Total		$	9,063,427	$	8,792,830
	Comprehensive Income (Loss)
	Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owners sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The guidance requires other comprehensive income (loss) to include foreign currency translation adjustments.
	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
	When circumstances, such as adverse market conditions, indicate that the carrying value of a long-lived asset may be impaired, the Company performs an analysis to review the recoverability of the asset’s carrying value, which includes estimating the undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest charges) from the expected future operations of the asset. These estimates consider factors such as expected future operating income, operating trends and prospects, as well as the effects of demand, competition and other factors. If the analysis indicates that the carrying value is not recoverable from future cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value. Any impairment losses are recorded as operating expenses, which reduce net income. There were no impairments of long-lived assets for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.
	Segment Information
	The FASB has established standards for reporting information on operating segments of an enterprise in interim and annual financial statements. The Company operates in one segment which is the business of real estate development in Argentina. The Company’s chief operating decision-maker reviews the Company’s operating results on an aggregate basis and manages the Company’s operations as a single operating segment. Certain activities of the Company such as the U.S. Broker Dealer Operations, are considered a service or support division to the Company, by providing capital raising efforts, substantially to support the AWLD real estate development activities, and are not considered a business for segment purposes.
	Revenue Recognition
	The Company earns revenues from its real estate, hospitality, food & beverage, broker-dealer and other related services. Revenues from rooms, food and beverage, and other operating departments are recognized as earned at the time of sale or rendering of service. Cash received in advance of the sale or rendering of services is recorded as deferred revenue on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred revenues associated with real estate lot sale deposits are recognized as revenues (along with any outstanding balance) when the lot sale closes and the deed is provided to the purchaser. Other deferred revenues primarily consist of deposits accepted by the Company in connection with agreements to sell barrels of wine. These wine barrel deposits are recognized as revenues (along with any outstanding balance) when the barrel of wine is shipped to the purchaser. Sales taxes and value added (“VAT”) taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are presented on a net basis within revenues in the consolidated statements of operations.
	The Company operates within a single operating segment, because all of its operations are in support of the Company’s branding strategy and its associated real estate development initiatives. However, the Company does track revenues associated with its different products and services, as follows:
			For The Years Ended
			December 31,
			2014		2013
	Hotel rooms and events		$	904,323	$	1,189,594
	Restaurants			595,284		671,177
	Winemaking			438,082		401,898
	Agricultural			80,529		210,524
	Broker-dealer			-18,606		270,401
Golf, tennis and other			115,300		100,507
Total Revenues		$	2,114,912	$	2,844,101
For the year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded unrealized losses on affiliate warrants of $23,542 and $10,744, respectively, which is included in broker-dealer revenues above.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. The Company additionally establishes a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets.
Net Loss per Common Share
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the impact of common shares, if dilutive, resulting from the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants and the conversion of convertible instruments.
The following securities are excluded from the calculation of weighted average dilutive common shares because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:
		December 31,
		2014		2013
Options			7,806,836		7,136,236
Warrants			1,069,674		899,156
Convertible instruments			297,805		7,263,015
Total potentially dilutive shares			9,174,315		15,298,407
Prepaid Compensation
Loans are given to certain registered representatives of CAP as an incentive for their affiliation with the Company. The registered representatives sign an agreement with CAP which specifies that portions of the loan will be forgiven on specific dates over a specified term, typically up to a five-year period. The loan is then amortized on a straight-line basis, which is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. In the event a registered representative’s affiliation with the Company terminates prior to the fulfillment of their contract, the registered representative is required to repay the unforgiven balance and the related accrued interest (rates up to 2% currently). The Company considers establishing an allowance for uncollectible amounts to reflect the amount of loss that can be reasonably estimated by management. Determination of the estimated amount of uncollectible loans includes consideration of the amount of credit extended, the affiliation status and the length of time each receivable has been outstanding, as it relates to each individual registered representative. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had $9,000 and $52,000 of unforgiven principal balances with one and two active registered representatives and $2,000 and $10,917 of accumulated amortization, respectively, which is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets.
Advances and Loans to Registered Representatives
Advances and loans to registered representatives of the Company’s subsidiary CAP represent short-term loans to registered representatives of the Company. The Company has the right to recover such advances from other monies owed to the registered representatives in the ordinary course of business. The determination of the uncollectible accounts is based on the amount of credit extended, the length of time each receivable has been outstanding and future compensation prospects, as it relates to each individual registered representative. The allowance for uncollectible amounts reflects the amount of loss that can be reasonably estimated by management and is included as part of general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company has reserved approximately $118,000 and $114,000 for any potential non-collection, respectively.
Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $153,696 and $168,703, respectively.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists." This ASU addresses the requirements regarding the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit within ASC Topic 740 for the purpose of providing consistency between the financial reporting of U.S. GAAP entities. Generally, this ASU provides guidance for the preparation of financial statements and disclosures when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. This ASU became effective January 1, 2014 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605 - Revenue Recognition and most industry-specific guidance throughout the ASC. The standard requires that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective on January 1, 2017 and should be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide that a Performance Target Could be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period," ("ASU 2014-12"). The amendments in ASU 2014-12 require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. A reporting entity should apply existing guidance in ASC Topic No. 718, "Compensation - Stock Compensation" as it relates to awards with performance conditions that affect vesting to account for such awards. The amendments in ASU 2014-12 are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Entities may apply the amendments in ASU 2014-12 either: (a) prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date; or (b) retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the consolidated financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of ASU 2014-12 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern” (“ASU 2014-15”). ASU 2014-15, which is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016, extends the responsibility for performing the going-concern assessment to management and contains guidance on how to perform a going-concern assessment and when going-concern disclosures would be required under U.S. GAAP. The Company elected to adopt ASU 2014-15 effective with its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Adoption of ASU 2014-15 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or its disclosures.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standard-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption

Prepaid Expense, Noncurrent [Abstract]
Prepaid Foreign Taxes Disclosure [Text Block]	7	PREPAID FOREIGN TAXES
	Prepaid foreign taxes, net, of $672,541 and $944,051 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, consists primarily of prepaid VAT. The ability to realize the prepaid VAT doesn’t expire, but it is dependent upon the generation of VAT collections on revenues that exceed VAT payments on eligible expenditures in an amount that offsets the prepaid VAT. Management considers the historical and projected revenues, expenses and capital expenditures in making this assessment.
	In assessing the realization of the prepaid foreign taxes, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the prepaid foreign taxes will not be realized. Based on this assessment, management believes that prepaid foreign taxes as recorded on the balance sheet are fully realizable. Accordingly, there are no valuation allowances related to prepaid foreign taxes as of December 31, 2014 and 2013.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block]	8	INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
	Fair value is 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. In determining fair value, the Company often utilizes certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or developed by the Company. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
		Level 1 -	Valued based on quoted prices at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities trading in active markets. Financial instruments in this category generally include actively traded equity securities.
		Level 2 -	Valued based on (a) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; (b) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; (c) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; or (d) from market corroborated inputs. Financial instruments in this category include certain corporate equities that are not actively traded or are otherwise restricted.
		Level 3 -	Valued based on valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs is not readily observable. Included in this category are certain corporate debt instruments, certain private equity investments, and certain commitments and guarantees.

	Accumulated unrealized gains related to investments at fair value at 12/31/14		$	114,188
	It is the Company’s policy to distribute part or all of the warrants CAP earns through serving as placement agent on various private placement offerings for a related but independent entity under common management, to registered representatives or other employees who provided investment banking services. The total compensation expense (fair value) recorded related to these distributed warrants is $0 and $67,995 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and is classified as general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations. Warrants retained by the Company’s broker-dealer subsidiary are marked to market at each reporting date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
	The fair value of the warrants was determined based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected share price volatility. Given that such shares were not publicly-traded, the Company developed an expected volatility figure based on a review of the historical volatilities, over a period of time, of similarly positioned public companies within the industry.
	The Company’s short term financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, advances and loans to registered representatives, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, each of which approximate their fair values based upon their short term nature. The Company’s other financial instruments include loans payable and convertible debt obligations. The carrying value of these instruments approximate fair value, as they bear terms and conditions comparable to market, for obligations with similar terms and maturities.

	8% Convertible Notes
	During an offering that commenced on September 8, 2009 and ultimately ended on September 30, 2010, IPG issued convertible notes with an interest rate of 8% and an amended maturity date of March 31, 2011 (the “8% Notes”) for gross proceeds of $13,238,120. Principal and accrued interest was contingently convertible, on an all-or-none basis, at the option of the holder (1) just prior to the consummation of the IPG Exchange into IPG membership units (“IPG Units”) at an amended 22.5% discount to the conversion date fair market value; or (2) just prior to the consummation of a share exchange with a public company (or a similar transaction) into AWLD common stock (the “Go Public Transaction”) at an amended 20% discount to the conversion date fair market value. These notes are no longer convertible at the discretion of the holder.
	The Company determined that the embedded conversion option (“ECO”) should not be bifurcated and accounted for as a derivative, primarily because the ECO’s, if freestanding, would not qualify as a derivative, on account of the fact that, at conversion settlement, the Company would not be delivering an asset that is readily convertible into cash.
	On September 30, 2010, principal of $11,735,520 and accrued interest of $439,628 were converted into IPG Units, and the IPG Units were exchanged for shares of AWLD common stock. Through December 31, 2014, principal and accrued interest of $1,215,100 and $153,315, respectively, has been repaid in cash. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, principal of $287,500 and $509,250, respectively, and accrued interest of $188,988 and $195,723, respectively, remained outstanding. The notes matured and are convertible at the option of the holder. After the maturity date, the interest continues to accrue for up to 12 months based on the interest rate stated above.
	12.5% Convertible Notes
	During an offering that commenced on June 24, 2011 and ultimately ended on October 31, 2011, AWLD issued convertible notes with an interest rate of 12.5% and an amended maturity date of August 29, 2012 (the “12.5% Notes”) for gross proceeds of $1,853,880. Principal and accrued interest was contingently convertible at the option of the holder (1) upon commencement of a $10,000,000 plus offering of preferred stock, on an all-or-none basis into such preferred stock at a 25% discount to the conversion date fair market value; or (2) after refusing the option to convert into preferred stock, into AWE land parcels at a 30% discount to the lesser of (i) the commitment date fair market value; or (ii) the conversion date fair market value. The contingent ECO’s expired at the August 29, 2012 maturity of the 12.5% Notes. These notes are no longer convertible at the discretion of the holder.

	As of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had approximately $35,825,000 and $28,072,000 of gross U.S. net operating loss (“NOL”) carryovers which may be carried forward for 20 years and begin to expire in 2019.  These NOL carryovers are subject to annual limitations under Section 382 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code when there is a greater than 50% ownership change, as determined under the regulations.  Based on our analysis, there was a change of control on or about June 30, 2012 and we have determined that, due to the annual limitations under Section 382, approximately $7,566,000 of the NOLs will expire unused.  Therefore, we have reduced the related deferred tax asset for U.S. NOL carryovers by approximately $3,367,000 from June 30, 2012 forward. The Company’s U.S. NOL’s generated through the date of the ownership change on June 30, 2012 are subject to an annual limitation of approximately $1,004,000.
	As of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had approximately $432,000 and $422,000 of gross U.K. NOL carryovers which do not expire. Finally, as of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had approximately $591,000 and $665,000 of Argentine tax credits which may be carried forward 10 years and begin to expire in 2015.
	Foreign earnings are assumed to be permanently reinvested. U.S. federal income taxes have not been provided on undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiary.
	In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.  The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the future generation of taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.  Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and taxing strategies in making this assessment. Based on this assessment, management has established a full valuation allowance against all of the net deferred tax assets for each period, since it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  The valuation allowance for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 increased by $3,392,966 and $3,167,217, respectively.
	Management has evaluated and concluded that there were no material uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2014 and 2013. The Company does not expect any significant changes in its unrecognized tax benefits within twelve months of the reporting date. The Company has U.S. tax returns subject to examination by tax authorities beginning with those filed for the year ended December 31, 2011. The Company’s policy is to classify assessments, if any, for tax related interest as interest expense and penalties as general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

	Equity Incentive Plans
	The Company’s 2001 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2001 Plan”), and the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2008 Plan”), were approved by the Company’s Board and shareholders on June 21, 2001 and August 25, 2008, respectively. The plans provide for grants to purchase up to an aggregate of 342,700 shares, and 9,000,000 shares, respectively. Both equity plans permit the granting of incentive and non-qualified stock options, restricted and unrestricted stock, loans and grants, and performance awards. Under all plans, (1) awards may be granted to employees, consultants, independent contractors, officers and directors; (2) the maximum term of any award shall be ten years from the date of grant; (3) the exercise price of any award shall not be less than the fair value on the date of grant. On June 21, 2011, the 2001 Plan expired, such that no new awards may be granted from the 2001 Plan, but all outstanding awards continue to run their course. The Company intends to issue new shares of common stock to satisfy any plan obligations.
	Stock Options
	The Company has computed the fair value of options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. There is currently no public trading market for the shares of AWLD common stock underlying the Company’s 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2008 Plan”). Accordingly, the fair value of the AWLD common stock was estimated by management based on observations of the cash sales prices of AWLD equity securities. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of valuation and reduce expense ratably over the vesting period. This estimate will be adjusted periodically based on the extent to which actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from the previous estimate, when it is material. The expected term of options granted to consultants represents the contractual term, whereas the expected term of options granted to employees and directors was estimated based upon the “simplified” method for “plain-vanilla” options. Given that the Company’s shares are not publicly traded, the Company developed an expected volatility figure based on a review of the historical volatilities, over a period of time, of similarly positioned public companies within its industry. The risk-free interest rate was determined from the implied yields from U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds with a remaining term consistent with the expected term of the options.
	On January 13, 2013, the Company granted a five-year option to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.48 to an employee of the Company, pursuant to the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan. The option vests over a four year period with one-fourth vesting on the one year anniversary of the date of grant and the remainder vesting quarterly thereafter. The $45,200 grant date fair value is being amortized ratably over the vesting period.
	On April 15, 2013, the Company granted five-year options to purchase an aggregate of 75,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.48 to directors of the Company, pursuant to the 2008 Plan. The options vest quarterly over a one year period from the date of grant. The $56,261 aggregate grant date fair value is being amortized over the vesting period.
	On June 30, 2013, the Company granted five-year options to purchase 2,955,000, 25,000, and 10,000 shares of immediately vested common stock at exercise prices of $2.48, $3.50 and $3.85 to employees and consultants of the Company, pursuant to the 2008 Equity Incentive Plan. The $1,994,608 grant date fair value was recognized immediately.
	On August 27, 2014, the Company granted five-year options to purchase an aggregate of 2,649,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.48 to employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company, pursuant to the 2008 Plan. The options vest as follows: (i) 550,000 shares vest over a five year period with one-fourth vesting on August 27, 2015 and the remainder vesting quarterly thereafter; (ii) 1,115,000 shares vest over a four year period with one-fourth vesting on August 27, 2015 and the remainder vesting quarterly thereafter; (iii) 1,000 shares vest over a four year period with one-fourth vesting on August 27, 2015 and the remainder vesting yearly thereafter; (iv) 483,000 shares vest on August 27, 2015; and (v) 500,000 shares vest over a four year period with one-sixteenth vesting on November 27, 2014 and the remainder vesting quarterly thereafter. The options had an aggregate grant date value of $1,489,951, of which, options granted to employees, officers and directors had an aggregate grant date fair value of $1,191,308, which will be recognized ratably over the vesting period, while options granted to consultants had an aggregate grant date value of $298,643, which will be re-measured on financial reporting dates and vesting dates until the service period is complete.
	In applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model, the Company used the following weighted average assumptions:
			For The Years Ended
			December 31,
			2014				2013
	Risk free interest rate			1.14	%			0.71	%
	Expected term (years)			3.54				3.09
	Expected volatility			46.4	%			48.4	%
	Expected dividends			0	%			0	%
	Forfeiture rate			5	%			5	%
The weighted average estimated fair values of the stock options granted during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $0.56 and $0.67 per share, respectively.
During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $568,022 and $2,563,343 respectively, related to stock option grants, which is reflected as general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. As of December 31, 2014, there was $1,491,290 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to stock option grants that will be amortized over a weighted average period of 3.2 years, of which $278,089 of unrecognized expense is subject to non-employee mark-to-market adjustments.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block]		17	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
	Legal Matters
	The Company is involved in litigation and arbitrations from time to time in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the outcome of any such pending or threatened litigation will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations. However, as is inherent in legal proceedings, there is a risk that an unpredictable decision adverse to the company could be reached. The Company records legal costs associated with loss contingencies as incurred. Settlements are accrued when, and if, they become probable and estimable.
	Regulatory Matters
	The partial settlement in May 2007 of a securities industry (FINRA) enforcement case first brought in 2004 left a few charges unresolved, principally, whether Company CEO, Scott Mathis, inadvertently or willfully failed to properly disclose the existence of certain federal tax liens on his Form U4 (the securities industry registration form) during the years 1996-2002. In December 2007, the FINRA Office of Hearing Officers (“OHO”) held that Mr. Mathis negligently failed to make certain disclosures on his Form U4 concerning personal tax liens, and willfully failed to make other required Form U4 disclosures regarding those tax liens. (All of the underlying tax liabilities were paid in 2003 so the liens were released in 2003.) Mr. Mathis received a three-month suspension, and a $10,000 fine for the lien nondisclosures. With respect to other non-willful late Form U4 filings relating to two customer complaints, he received an additional 10-day suspension (to run concurrently), plus an additional $2,500 fine. The suspension was completed on September 4, 2012, and all fines have been paid.
	Mr. Mathis has never disputed that he failed to make, or timely make, these disclosures on his Form U4; he only disputed the willfulness finding. He appealed the decision (principally with respect to the willfulness issue) to the FINRA National Adjudicatory Council (“NAC”). In December 2008, NAC affirmed the OHO decision pertaining to the “willful” issue, and slightly broadened the finding. Thereafter, Mr. Mathis appealed the NAC decision to the Securities and Exchange Commission and thereafter to the U.S. Court of Appeals. In each instance, the decision of the NAC was affirmed.
	Under FINRA’s rules, the finding that Mr. Mathis was found to have acted willfully subjects him to a “statutory disqualification.” This means that he might no longer be permitted to continue to work in the securities industry. In September 2012, Mr. Mathis submitted to FINRA an application on Form MC-400 in which he sought permission to continue to work in the securities industry, notwithstanding the fact that he is subject to a statutory disqualification. A hearing on that application was held in October, 2014, and it is not known when a decision will be made. While a denial of that application would preclude Mr. Mathis from continuing to work at the Company’s broker-dealer, he would still be able to continue performing his duties for the non-securities side of the business.
	Pending Financial Disclosures
	Mr. Mathis currently has two liens filed against him for unpaid taxes as disclosed on his Form U4. The majority of tax owed by Mr. Mathis resulted from the sale of a portion of his shares in Hollywood Burger Holdings, Inc., which Mr. Mathis liquidated in order to provide funds through a loan to the Company. Mr. Mathis has entered into payment plans with the IRS and is fully compliant with those plans. Mr. Mathis has made full payment of the tax owed to New York State and currently no amounts are outstanding with regard to taxes owed to New York State.
	Employment Agreement
	The CEO has an employment agreement which commenced on January 1, 2003 which automatically renews for annual periods following the initial two-year term. The agreement may be terminated by either party upon three months written notice in advance of any renewal date. Compensation pursuant to the agreement includes an annual salary of $250,000 (subject to annual increases of 5% beginning with the first automatic renewal), bonus eligibility, paid vacation and specified business expense reimbursements. The agreement sets limits on the CEO’s annual sales of AWLD common stock. If the CEO’s employment is terminated by the Company without cause or by the CEO for Good Reason, then the salary is payable for the remainder of the then current term, plus an additional six months. Upon a change of control (1) the CEO’s options fully vest; (2) the employment term resets to one year from the date of the change of control; (3) the CEO has the right to resign during the thirty day period commencing on the one year anniversary of the change of control and then receive, within thirty days of his termination, a lump sum payment equal to his then current annual salary. The CEO isn’t permitted to solicit AWLD clients or employees during a two-year non-solicitation period following his termination.
	Commitments
	The Company leases office space under an operating lease that expires on August 31, 2015. Most of the leases include renewal options. Future minimum payments on these operating leases are as follows:
	For The Years Ending
	December 31,		Amount
	2015		$	103,997
	Thereafter			-
	Total		$	103,997
	Rent expense for this property for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $129,168 and $129,169, respectively, net of expense allocation to affiliates.

SUMMARY_OF_SIGNIFICANT_ACCOUNT1

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	12 Months Ended
	Dec. 31, 2014
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Principles of Consolidation
	The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of Algodon Wines & Luxury Development Group, Inc. and the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Use of Estimates
	To prepare financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the Company must make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts in the financial statements, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The significant estimates and assumptions of the Company are the valuation of equity instruments, the useful lives of property and equipment and reserves associated with the realizability of certain assets.
Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block]	Foreign Currency Translation
	The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the United States Dollar. The functional currencies of the Company’s operating subsidiaries are their local currencies (United States Dollar, Argentine Peso and British Pound). There has been a steady devaluation of the Argentine Peso relative to the United States Dollar in recent years. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the balance sheet date (8.5411 and 6.5049 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively) and revenue and expense accounts are translated at a weighted average exchange rate for the period or for the year then ended (8.1095 and 5.4714 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively). Resulting translation adjustments are made directly to accumulated other comprehensive income. Losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of $223,904 and $259,864 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, are recognized in operating results in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company engages in foreign currency denominated transactions with customers and suppliers, as well as between subsidiaries with different functional currencies.
	A highly inflationary economy is defined as an economy with a cumulative inflation rate of approximately 100 percent or more over a three-year period. If a country’s economy is classified as highly inflationary, the functional currency of the foreign entity operating in that country must be remeasured to the functional currency of the reporting entity. The official cumulative inflation rate for Argentina over the last three years approximated 44%, although the International Monetary Fund has concerns regarding the accuracy of the official data.
Receivables, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Accounts Receivable
	Accounts receivable primarily represent receivables from hotel guests who occupy rooms and wine sales to commercial customers. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts when it determines that it is more likely than not a specific account will not be collected. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $10,530 and $20,215 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Bad debt expense for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $41,299 and $35,591, respectively. Write-offs of accounts receivable for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $21,424 and $3,154, respectively.
Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Inventory
	Inventories are comprised primarily of vineyard in process, wine in process, finished wine, plus food and beverage items and are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost being determined on the first-in, first-out method. Costs associated with winemaking, and other costs associated with the creation of products for resale, are recorded as inventory. Vineyard in process represents the monthly capitalization of farming expenses (including farming labor costs, usage of farming supplies and depreciation of the vineyard and farming equipment) associated with the growing of grape, olive and other fruits during the farming year which culminates with the February/March harvest. Wine in process represents the capitalization of costs during the winemaking process (including the transfer of grape costs from vineyard in process, winemaking labor costs and depreciation of winemaking fixed assets, including tanks, barrels, equipment, tools and the winemaking building). Finished wines represents wine available for sale and includes the transfer of costs from wine in process once the wine is bottled and labeled. Other inventory represents olives, other fruits, golf equipment and restaurant food.
	In accordance with general practice within the wine industry, wine inventories are included in current assets, although a portion of such inventories may be aged for periods longer than one year. As required, the Company reduces the carrying value of inventories that are obsolete or in excess of estimated usage to estimated net realizable value. The Company’s estimates of net realizable value are based on analyses and assumptions including, but not limited to, historical usage, future demand and market requirements. Reductions to the carrying value of inventories are recorded in cost of sales. If future demand and/or pricing for the Company’s products are less than previously estimated, then the carrying value of the inventories may be required to be reduced, resulting in additional expense and reduced profitability. Inventory write-downs recorded during 2014 and 2013 were negligible.
Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Property and Equipment
	Investments in property and equipment are recorded at cost. These assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:
	Buildings	10 - 30 years
	Furniture and fixtures	3 - 10 years
	Vineyards	7 - 20 years
	Machinery and equipment	3 - 20 years
	Leasehold improvements	3 - 5 years
	Computer hardware and software	3 - 5 years
	The Company capitalizes internal vineyard improvement costs when developing new vineyards or replacing or improving existing vineyards. These costs consist primarily of the costs of the vines and expenditures related to labor and materials to prepare the land and construct vine trellises. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operating expense as incurred. The cost of properties sold or otherwise disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts at the time of disposal and resulting gains and losses are included as a component of operating income. Real estate development consists of costs incurred to ready the land for sale, including primarily costs of infrastructure as well as master plan development and associated professional fees. Such costs will be allocated to individual lots proportionately based on square meters and those allocated costs will be derecognized upon the sale of individual lots. Given that they are not currently in service, capitalized real estate development costs are currently not being depreciated. Land is an inexhaustible asset and is not depreciated.
Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy [Policy Text Block]	Stock-based Compensation
	The Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the fair value of the award. For employees and directors, the fair value of the award is measured on the grant date and for non-employees, the fair value of the award is generally re-measured on financial reporting dates and vesting dates until the service period is complete. The fair value amount of the shares expected to ultimately vest is then recognized over the period services are required to be provided in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. The estimation of stock-based awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent actual results or updated estimates differ from original estimates, such amounts are recorded as a cumulative adjustment in the period estimates are revised. The Company considers many factors when estimating expected forfeitures, including types of awards, employee class, and historical experience.
Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Concentrations
	The Company maintains cash with major financial institutions. Cash held in US bank institutions is currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 at each institution. No similar insurance or guarantee exists for cash held in Argentina bank accounts. There were aggregate uninsured cash balances of $135,098 and $135,335 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
	During 2013, a single investor/lender comprised 65% of the $5,556,820 of gross proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt obligations and preferred stock.
	See Note 15 – Related Party Transactions – Liabilities for details associated with a liability concentration.
Foreign Operations [Policy Text Block]	Foreign Operations

	Net Loss- U.S.			6,488,640		6,545,652
	Net Loss- Total		$	9,063,427	$	8,792,830
Comprehensive Income, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Comprehensive Income (Loss)
	Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owners sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The guidance requires other comprehensive income (loss) to include foreign currency translation adjustments.
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
	When circumstances, such as adverse market conditions, indicate that the carrying value of a long-lived asset may be impaired, the Company performs an analysis to review the recoverability of the asset’s carrying value, which includes estimating the undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest charges) from the expected future operations of the asset. These estimates consider factors such as expected future operating income, operating trends and prospects, as well as the effects of demand, competition and other factors. If the analysis indicates that the carrying value is not recoverable from future cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value. Any impairment losses are recorded as operating expenses, which reduce net income. There were no impairments of long-lived assets for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.
Segment Reporting, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Segment Information
	The FASB has established standards for reporting information on operating segments of an enterprise in interim and annual financial statements. The Company operates in one segment which is the business of real estate development in Argentina. The Company’s chief operating decision-maker reviews the Company’s operating results on an aggregate basis and manages the Company’s operations as a single operating segment. Certain activities of the Company such as the U.S. Broker Dealer Operations, are considered a service or support division to the Company, by providing capital raising efforts, substantially to support the AWLD real estate development activities, and are not considered a business for segment purposes.
Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Revenue Recognition
	The Company earns revenues from its real estate, hospitality, food & beverage, broker-dealer and other related services. Revenues from rooms, food and beverage, and other operating departments are recognized as earned at the time of sale or rendering of service. Cash received in advance of the sale or rendering of services is recorded as deferred revenue on the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred revenues associated with real estate lot sale deposits are recognized as revenues (along with any outstanding balance) when the lot sale closes and the deed is provided to the purchaser. Other deferred revenues primarily consist of deposits accepted by the Company in connection with agreements to sell barrels of wine. These wine barrel deposits are recognized as revenues (along with any outstanding balance) when the barrel of wine is shipped to the purchaser. Sales taxes and value added (“VAT”) taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are presented on a net basis within revenues in the consolidated statements of operations.
	The Company operates within a single operating segment, because all of its operations are in support of the Company’s branding strategy and its associated real estate development initiatives. However, the Company does track revenues associated with its different products and services, as follows:
			For The Years Ended
			December 31,
			2014		2013
	Hotel rooms and events		$	904,323	$	1,189,594
	Restaurants			595,284		671,177
	Winemaking			438,082		401,898
	Agricultural			80,529		210,524
	Broker-dealer			-18,606		270,401
	Golf, tennis and other			115,300		100,507
	Total Revenues		$	2,114,912	$	2,844,101
	For the year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded unrealized losses on affiliate warrants of $23,542 and $10,744, respectively, which is included in broker-dealer revenues above.
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Income Taxes
	The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. The Company additionally establishes a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets.
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Net Loss per Common Share
	Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the impact of common shares, if dilutive, resulting from the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants and the conversion of convertible instruments.
	The following securities are excluded from the calculation of weighted average dilutive common shares because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive:
			December 31,
			2014		2013
	Options			7,806,836		7,136,236
	Warrants			1,069,674		899,156
	Convertible instruments			297,805		7,263,015
	Total potentially dilutive shares			9,174,315		15,298,407
Compensation Related Costs, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Prepaid Compensation
	Loans are given to certain registered representatives of CAP as an incentive for their affiliation with the Company. The registered representatives sign an agreement with CAP which specifies that portions of the loan will be forgiven on specific dates over a specified term, typically up to a five-year period. The loan is then amortized on a straight-line basis, which is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. In the event a registered representative’s affiliation with the Company terminates prior to the fulfillment of their contract, the registered representative is required to repay the unforgiven balance and the related accrued interest (rates up to 2% currently). The Company considers establishing an allowance for uncollectible amounts to reflect the amount of loss that can be reasonably estimated by management. Determination of the estimated amount of uncollectible loans includes consideration of the amount of credit extended, the affiliation status and the length of time each receivable has been outstanding, as it relates to each individual registered representative. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had $9,000 and $52,000 of unforgiven principal balances with one and two active registered representatives and $2,000 and $10,917 of accumulated amortization, respectively, which is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets.
Advances and Loans to Registered Representatives [Policy Text Block]	Advances and Loans to Registered Representatives
	Advances and loans to registered representatives of the Company’s subsidiary CAP represent short-term loans to registered representatives of the Company. The Company has the right to recover such advances from other monies owed to the registered representatives in the ordinary course of business. The determination of the uncollectible accounts is based on the amount of credit extended, the length of time each receivable has been outstanding and future compensation prospects, as it relates to each individual registered representative. The allowance for uncollectible amounts reflects the amount of loss that can be reasonably estimated by management and is included as part of general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company has reserved approximately $118,000 and $114,000 for any potential non-collection, respectively.
Advertising Costs, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Advertising
	Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $153,696 and $168,703, respectively.
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]	New Accounting Pronouncements
	In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists." This ASU addresses the requirements regarding the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit within ASC Topic 740 for the purpose of providing consistency between the financial reporting of U.S. GAAP entities. Generally, this ASU provides guidance for the preparation of financial statements and disclosures when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. This ASU became effective January 1, 2014 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605 - Revenue Recognition and most industry-specific guidance throughout the ASC. The standard requires that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective on January 1, 2017 and should be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements or disclosures.
	In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide that a Performance Target Could be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period," ("ASU 2014-12"). The amendments in ASU 2014-12 require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. A reporting entity should apply existing guidance in ASC Topic No. 718, "Compensation - Stock Compensation" as it relates to awards with performance conditions that affect vesting to account for such awards. The amendments in ASU 2014-12 are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Entities may apply the amendments in ASU 2014-12 either: (a) prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date; or (b) retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the consolidated financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of ASU 2014-12 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
	In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern” (“ASU 2014-15”). ASU 2014-15, which is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016, extends the responsibility for performing the going-concern assessment to management and contains guidance on how to perform a going-concern assessment and when going-concern disclosures would be required under U.S. GAAP. The Company elected to adopt ASU 2014-15 effective with its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Adoption of ASU 2014-15 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or its disclosures.
	Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standard-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption
