Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Accounting Changes	BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING CHANGES Business Operations Elevate Credit, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation. The Company provides technology-driven, progressive online credit solutions to non-prime consumers. The Company uses advanced technology and proprietary risk analytics to provide more convenient and more responsible financial options to its customers, who are not well-served by either banks or legacy non-prime lenders. The Company currently offers unsecured online installment loans and lines of credit in the United States (the “US”) and the United Kingdom (the “UK”). The Company’s products, Rise, Elastic and Sunny, reflect its mission of “Good Today, Better Tomorrow” and provide customers with access to competitively priced credit and services while helping them build a brighter financial future with credit building and financial wellness features. In the UK, the Company directly offers unsecured installment loans via the internet through its wholly owned subsidiary, Elevate Credit International (UK), Limited, (“ECI”) under the brand name of Sunny. Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2017 and for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and a variable interest entity ("VIE") where the Company is the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information included in this report has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and conform, as applicable, to general practices within the finance company industry. The principles for interim financial information do not require the inclusion of all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Therefore, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-207888), as amended (the "Registration Statement"), for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on April 6, 2017 (the "Registration Statement"). In the opinion of the Company’s management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. See Note 13 - Subsequent Events. Initial Public Offering and Stock-Based Compensation On April 6, 2017, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) in which it issued and sold 12,400,000 shares of common stock at a price of $6.50 per share to the public. In connection with the closing, the underwriters exercised their option to purchase in full for an additional 1,860,000 shares. On April 6, 2017 , the Company's stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol “ELVT.” The aggregate net proceeds received by the Company from the IPO, net of underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses, was approximately $81 million . Immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, all then outstanding shares of the Company's convertible preferred stock, were converted into 14,098,519 shares of common stock. The related carrying value of shares of preferred stock, in the aggregate amount of approximately $6 thousand , was reclassified as common stock. Additionally, the Company amended and restated its certificate of incorporation, effective April 11, 2017 to, among other things, change the authorized number of shares of common stock to 300,000,000 and the authorized number of shares of preferred stock to 24,500,000 , each with a par value of $0.0004 per share. Stock options granted to certain employees vest upon the satisfaction of the earlier of either a service condition or a liquidity condition. The service condition for these awards is generally satisfied over four years . The liquidity condition is satisfied upon the occurrence of a qualifying event, defined as the completion of the IPO, which occurred on April 6, 2017. The satisfaction of this vesting condition accelerated the expense attribution period for those stock options, and the Company recognized a cumulative share-based compensation expense for the portion of those stock options that met the liquidity condition. Restricted stock units (RSUs) granted to both employees and non-employee directors vest upon the satisfaction of a service condition. The service condition for these awards is generally satisfied over one year for non-employee directors or four years for employees. See Note 13—Subsequent Events. Retroactive Stock Split On December 11, 2015, the Board of Directors approved the ratio to effect a 2.5 -for-1 forward stock split of the Company's common stock. The stock split became effective in connection with the completion of the Company’s IPO. The Company's IPO and resulting stock split had the following effect on the Company's equity as of March 31, 2017 : • Convertible Preferred Stock: In April 2017 as a result of the IPO, all then outstanding shares of the Company's convertible preferred stock ( 5,639,410 ), were converted on a one-to-one basis without additional consideration into an aggregate of 5,639,410 shares of common stock and, thereafter, into 14,098,519 shares of common stock after the application of the 2.5 -for-1 forward stock split. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes, including share and per share amounts, do not give effect to the conversion of the convertible preferred stock into shares of common stock. See Note 2—Earnings per Share for unaudited pro forma basic and diluted net income per share, which has been computed to give effect to the conversion of the convertible preferred stock into shares of common stock as though the conversion had occurred as of the beginning of the period. • Common Stock: The IPO and resulting stock split caused an adjustment to the par value for the common stock, from $0.001 per share to $0.0004 per share, and caused a two-and-a-half times increase in the number of authorized and outstanding shares of common stock. The number of shares of common stock and per share common stock data in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been retroactively adjusted to reflect a 2.5 -for-1 forward stock split for all periods presented. • Stock-Based Compensation: The IPO and resulting stock split decreased the exercise price for stock options by two-and-a-half times per share, and reflected a two and a half times increase in the number of stock options and RSUs outstanding. The number of stock options and RSUs and per share common stock data in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes have been retroactively adjusted to reflect a 2.5 -for-1 forward stock split for all periods presented. See Note 13—Subsequent Events. Use of Estimates The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the valuation of the allowance for loan losses, goodwill, long-lived and intangible assets, deferred revenues, contingencies, the fair value of derivatives, the income tax provision, valuation of stock-based compensation and the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current data and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Equity Issuance Costs Costs incurred related to the Company's IPO have been deferred and included in Prepaid expenses and other assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and will be charged against the gross proceeds of the IPO (i.e., charged against additional paid-in capital in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements) as of the closing of the IPO on April 11, 2017 . The balance of these equity issuance costs at March 31, 2017 was approximately $5.2 million and is included in Prepaid expenses and other assets in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The cumulative balance of these equity issuance costs as of the date of the Company's IPO on April 11, 2017 , was approximately $6.0 million . Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting ("ASU 2016-09"). ASU 2016-09 is intended to simplify the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted all amendments of ASU 2016-09 on a prospective basis, except as noted below, as of January 1, 2017 which had the following effects on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows: • Recognized a cumulative effect adjustment to accumulated deficit of approximately $3.4 million for the deferred tax asset attributable to excess tax benefits on stock compensation. • Recognized excess tax benefits of $690 thousand in earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2017 . The Company discontinued recording excess tax benefits within additional paid-in capital. • Modified its computation of potentially dilutive shares for earnings per share using the treasury stock method by excluding excess tax benefits (deficiencies) as a component of assumed proceeds; as excess tax benefits are no longer recognized within additional paid-in capital. • Included excess tax benefits for stock-based compensation in cash flows from operating activities rather than cash flows from financing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. • Presented employee taxes paid as a financing activity on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows on a retrospective basis. Accounting Standards to be Adopted in Future Periods In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). The purpose of ASU 2017-04 is to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill. The amendments modify the concept of impairment from the condition that exists when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value to the condition that exists when the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value. An entity no longer will determine goodwill impairment by calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by assigning the fair value of a reporting unit to all of its assets and liabilities as if that reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. This guidance is effective for public companies for goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2017-04 on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force ("ASU 2016-18"). The purpose of ASU 2016-18 is to reduce diversity in practice related to the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows. Under this new guidance, the statement of cash flows during the reporting period must explain the change in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. ASU 2016-18 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, ASU 2016-18 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-18 on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements; however, the Company's preliminary assessment of the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-18 is that, upon adoption, the Company will include any restricted cash balances as part of cash and cash equivalents in its condensed statements of cash flows and not present the change in restricted cash balances as a separate line item under investing activities as it currently presented. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments ("ASU 2016-15") . ASU 2016-15 is intended to reduce diversity in practice for certain cash receipts and cash payments that are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. For public entities, ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-15 on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company does not currently expect that the adoption of ASU 2016-15 will have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). ASU 2016-13 is intended to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current US GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates to improve the quality of information available to financial statement users about expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. For public entities, ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-13 on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company expects to complete its analysis of the impact in 2017. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU 2016-02"). ASU 2016-02 is intended to improve the reporting of leasing transactions to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. ASU 2016-02 will require organizations that lease assets to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-02 on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company expects to complete its analysis of the impact in 2017. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of Effective Date ("ASU 2015-14"), which defers the effective date of this guidance by one year, to the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. A reporting entity may choose to early adopt the guidance as of the original effective date. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Revenues from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing ("ASU 2016-10"), which clarifies the guidance related to identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation. Upon adoption of the new revenue recognition guidance, the Company anticipates using the alternative transition method that requires the application of the guidance only to contracts that are uncompleted on the date of initial application. The Company completed its initial assessment in evaluating the potential impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and based on its initial assessment determined that its financial contracts are excluded from the scope of ASU 2014-09. As a result of the scope exception for financial contracts, the Company's management has determined that there will be no material changes to the recognition timing and classification of revenues and expenses; additionally, the Company's management does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-09 to have a significant impact to pretax income upon adoption. The Company will continue to evaluate the impacts of ASU 2014-09 through the date of adoption to ensure that its initial assessment continues to remain accurate. Additionally, the Company is continuing its assessment of ASU 2014-09’s impact on its condensed financial statement disclosures.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings Per Share	EARNINGS PER SHARE In April 2017, the Company effected a 2.5 -for-1 forward stock split of its common stock in connection with the completion of the IPO, which has been retroactively applied to previously reported share and earnings per share amounts. Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding ("WASO") during each period. Also, basic EPS includes any fully vested stock and unit awards that have not yet been issued as common stock. There are no fully vested stock and unit awards not issued as common stock at March 31, 2017 and 2016. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the WASO during each period plus any unvested stock option awards granted and vested unexercised stock options using the treasury stock method but only to the extent that these instruments dilute earnings per share. The dilutive effect of convertible preferred stock and convertible debt is reflected in diluted earnings per share using the if-converted method. Conversion of the preferred stock and convertible debt is not assumed for purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share if the effect is anti-dilutive. Tax-effected interest expense (including the amortization of issuance costs) related to the convertible debt is added back to net income for purposes of the calculation, except for periods where the effect would be anti-dilutive. The computation of earnings per share was as follows for three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 : Three Months Ended March 31, (Dollars in thousands except per share amounts) 2017 2016 Numerator (basic): Net income $ 1,668 $ 5,792 Numerator (diluted): Net income $ 1,668 $ 5,792 Tax-effected interest expense attributable to Convertible Term Notes — — Net income assuming dilution $ 1,668 $ 5,792 Denominator (basic): Basic weighted average number of shares outstanding 13,138,951 12,797,458 Denominator (diluted): Basic weighted average number of shares outstanding 13,138,951 12,797,458 Effect of potentially dilutive securities: Convertible Preferred Stock 14,098,519 14,098,519 Employee stock plans (options and RSUs) 1,498,279 1,910,440 Convertible Term Notes — — Diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding 28,735,749 28,806,417 Basic and diluted earnings per share: Basic earnings per share $ 0.13 $ 0.45 Diluted earnings per share $ 0.06 $ 0.20 For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , the Company excluded the following potential common shares, respectively, from its diluted earnings per share calculation because including these shares would be anti-dilutive: • 420 thousand and 133 thousand common shares issuable upon exercise of the Company's stock options and vesting of its RSUs; and • 4 million and 0 common shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Term Notes. (See Note 5—Notes Payable—VPC Facility for more information regarding the Convertible Term Notes). ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share” (“ASC Topic 260”) requires companies with participating securities to utilize a two-class method for the computation of net income per share attributable to the Company. The two-class method requires a portion of net income attributable to the Company to be allocated to participating securities. Net losses are not allocated to participating securities unless those securities are obligated to participate in losses. The Company did not have any participating securities for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 . Unaudited Pro Forma Earnings Per Share Unaudited pro forma basic and diluted net income per share has been computed to give effect to the automatic conversion of the convertible preferred stock into shares of common stock upon the completion of a the IPO using the if converted method as though the conversion had occurred as of the beginning of the period. The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s unaudited pro forma basic and diluted net income per share for the periods indicated: Three Months Ended March 31, (Dollars in thousands except per share amounts) 2017 2016 Numerator (basic): Net income $ 1,668 $ 5,792 Numerator (diluted): Net income $ 1,668 $ 5,792 Tax-effected interest expense attributable to Convertible Term Notes — — Net income assuming dilution $ 1,668 $ 5,792 Denominator (basic): Basic weighted average number of shares outstanding 13,138,951 12,797,458 Pro forma adjustment to reflect assumed conversion of convertible preferred stock into common stock 14,098,519 14,098,519 Pro forma basic weighted average number of shares outstanding 27,237,470 26,895,977 Denominator (diluted): Basic weighted average number of shares outstanding 27,237,470 26,895,977 Effect of potentially dilutive securities: Employee stock plans (Options and RSUs) 1,498,279 1,910,440 Convertible Term Notes — — Pro forma diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding 28,735,749 28,806,417 Pro forma basic and diluted earnings per share: Pro forma basic earnings per share $ 0.06 $ 0.22 Pro forma diluted earnings per share $ 0.06 $ 0.20

Receivables [Abstract]
Loans Receivable and Revenue	LOANS RECEIVABLE AND REVENUE Revenues generated from the Company’s consumer loans for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 were as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, (Dollars in thousands) 2017 2016 Finance charges $ 98,071 $ 96,243 CSO fees 16,010 18,471 Lines of credit fees 41,771 15,838 Other 515 170 Total revenues $ 156,367 $ 130,722 The Company's portfolio consists of both installment loans and lines of credit, which are considered the portfolio segments at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 . The following reflects the credit quality of the Company’s loans receivable as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 as delinquency status has been identified as the primary credit quality indicator. Loans are determined to be past due when they are one day past due without a payment. All impaired loans as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 have been charged off. March 31, 2017 (Dollars in thousands) Installment Line of Credit Total Current loans $ 209,400 $ 164,509 $ 373,909 Past due loans 44,635 16,569 61,204 Total loans receivable 254,035 181,078 435,113 Net unamortized loan premium — 1,997 1,997 Less: Allowance for loan losses (49,711 ) (20,087 ) (69,798 ) Loans receivable, net $ 204,324 $ 162,988 $ 367,312 December 31, 2016 (Dollars in thousands) Installment Line of Credit Total Current loans 1 $ 235,794 $ 156,717 $ 392,511 Past due loans 1 57,822 17,857 75,679 Total loans receivable 293,616 174,574 468,190 Net unamortized loan premium — 1,924 1,924 Less: Allowance for loan losses (58,062 ) (19,389 ) (77,451 ) Loans receivable, net $ 235,554 $ 157,109 $ 392,663 1. A reclassification of approximately $1.0 million from Current loans to Past due loans within Installment was made in order to conform to the current period presentation. This reclassification had no effect on previously reported total loans receivable balances in the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016. Total loans receivable includes approximately $21.4 million and $25.6 million of interest receivable at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively. The carrying value for Loans receivable, net of the allowance for loan losses approximates the fair value due to the short-term nature of the loans receivable. The changes in the allowance for loan losses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 are as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 (Dollars in thousands) Installment Line of Credit Total Balance beginning of period $ 62,987 $ 19,389 $ 82,376 Provision for loan losses 60,720 22,073 82,793 Charge-offs (76,262 ) (22,994 ) (99,256 ) Recoveries of prior charge-offs 5,709 1,619 7,328 Effect of changes in foreign currency rates 122 — 122 Total 53,276 20,087 73,363 Accrual for CSO lender owned loans (3,565 ) — (3,565 ) Balance end of period $ 49,711 $ 20,087 $ 69,798 Three Months Ended March 31, 2016 (Dollars in thousands) Installment Line of Credit Total Balance beginning of period $ 55,768 $ 10,016 $ 65,784 Provision for loan losses 51,944 7,145 59,089 Charge-offs (66,581 ) (8,100 ) (74,681 ) Recoveries of prior charge-offs 5,671 — 5,671 Effect of changes in foreign currency rates (271 ) — (271 ) Total 46,531 9,061 55,592 Accrual for CSO lender owned loans (4,296 ) — (4,296 ) Balance end of period $ 42,235 $ 9,061 $ 51,296 As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively, estimated losses of approximately $3.6 million and $4.9 million for the CSO owned loans receivable guaranteed by the Company of approximately $31.6 million and $40.5 million , respectively, are initially recorded at fair value and are included in Accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Variable Interest Entity

Variable Interest Entity	3 Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2017
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Variable Interest Entity	VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY The Company is involved with three entities that are deemed to be a VIE - Elastic SPV, Ltd. and two CSO lenders. Under ASC 810-10-15, Variable Interest Entities ., a VIE is an entity that: (1) has an insufficient amount of equity investment at risk to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support by other parties; (2) the equity investors are unable to make significant decisions about the entity’s activities through voting rights or similar rights; or (3) the equity investors do not have the obligation to absorb expected losses or the right to receive residual returns of the entity. The Company is required to consolidate a VIE if it is determined to be the primary beneficiary, that is, the enterprise that has both (1) the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company evaluates its relationships with VIEs to determine whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE at the time it becomes involved with the entity and it re-evaluates that conclusion each reporting period. Elastic SPV, Ltd. On July 1, 2015, the Company entered into several agreements with a third-party lender and Elastic SPV, Ltd. (“ESPV”), an entity formed by third party investors for the purpose of purchasing loan participations from the third-party lender. On that date, approximately $20.2 million of loan participations in the Elastic lines of credit outstanding held by the Company were transferred to ESPV for no gain or loss. Per the terms of the agreements, the Company provides customer acquisition services to drive the volume of loan applications submitted to the third-party lender. In addition, the Company provides loan underwriting software and services to evaluate the credit quality of those loan applications in accordance with the third-party lender’s credit policies. ESPV accounts for the loan participations acquired in accordance with ASC 860-10-40, Transfers and Services, Derecognition , as the lines of credit acquired meet the criteria of a participation interest. Once the third-party lender originates the loan, ESPV has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase a 90% interest in each Elastic line of credit. Victory Park Management, LLC (“VPC”) entered into an agreement (the "ESPV Facility") under which it loans ESPV all funds necessary up to a maximum borrowing amount to purchase such participation interests in exchange for a fixed return (see Note 5—Notes Payable—ESPV Facility). The Company entered into a separate credit default protection agreement with ESPV whereby the Company agreed to provide credit protection to the investors in ESPV against Elastic loan losses in return for a credit premium. The Company does not hold a direct ownership interest in ESPV, however, as a result of the credit default protection agreement, ESPV was determined to be a VIE and the Company qualifies as the primary beneficiary. The following table summarizes the assets and liabilities of the VIE that are included within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 : (Dollars in thousands) March 31, December 31, ASSETS Cash and cash equivalents $ 19,651 $ 15,096 Loans receivable, net of allowance for loan losses of $20,087 and $19,389, respectively 162,988 157,109 Prepaid expenses and other assets ($0 and $52, respectively, eliminates upon consolidation) — 52 Receivable from payment processors 7,324 7,351 Total assets $ 189,963 $ 179,608 LIABILITIES AND MEMBERS’ EQUITY Accounts payable and accrued liabilities ($9,697 and $4,856, respectively, eliminates upon consolidation) 1 $ 17,730 $ 12,580 Reserve deposit liability ($22,500 and $21,825, respectively, eliminates upon consolidation) 22,500 21,825 Notes payable, net 149,733 145,203 Members' equity — — Total liabilities and members’ equity $ 189,963 $ 179,608 1. In the course of preparing its condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company identified a disclosure error related to the amount of accounts payable and accrued liabilities that was eliminated upon consolidation at December 31, 2016 associated with credit default premiums. The actual amount eliminated at December 31, 2016 was $4.9 million as opposed to $1.1 million that was previously disclosed. The Company has determined that the error was not material to its consolidated financial statements and the correction of this error resulted in a revision to the amount disclosed only and had no impact on accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2016. CSO Lenders The two CSO lenders are considered VIE's of the Company; however, the Company does not have any ownership interest in the CSO lenders, does not exercise control over them, and is not the primary beneficiary, and therefore, does not consolidate the CSO lenders’ results with its results.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Notes Payable	NOTES PAYABLE The Company has two debt facilities with VPC. The Rise SPV, LLC ("RSPV," a subsidiary of the Company) credit facility (the "VPC Facility") and the ESPV Facility. VPC Facility On January 30, 2014, RSPV entered into an agreement with VPC providing a credit facility with a maximum borrowing amount of $250 million . On May 20, 2015, the VPC Facility was amended, providing a credit facility with a maximum total borrowing amount of $335 million to RSPV, ECI and Elevate Credit Service, LLC ("ELCS"), all subsidiaries of the Company. On February 11, 2016, the VPC Facility was amended, providing a credit facility with a maximum total borrowing amount of $345 million to RSPV, ECI and ELCS. On June 30, 2016, the VPC Facility was amended, providing a credit facility with a maximum total borrowing amount of $395 million to RSPV, ECI and ELCS. On January 5, 2017, the VPC Facility was amended to extend the required draw-down date of the $15 million remaining undrawn principal on the Convertible Term Notes from December 31, 2016 to January 5, 2017. On February 1, 2017, the VPC Facility was amended to increase the maximum borrowing on the US Term Note from $250 million to $350 million , lower the interest rate on the US Term Note to a base rate (defined as the 3-month LIBOR, with a 1% floor) plus 11% , extend the maturity date for the US Term Note to February 1, 2021, excluding $75 million currently outstanding under the note which is subject to an August 13, 2018 maturity date and permanently reduce the book value of equity covenant from $10 million to $5 million . This facility provides the following term notes at March 31, 2017 : • A maximum borrowing amount of $350 million at a base rate (defined as the 3-month LIBOR, with a 1% floor) plus 11% used to fund the Rise loan portfolio (“US Term Note”). The effective interest rate on the outstanding balance at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was 12.05% and 14.01% , respectively. • A maximum borrowing amount of $50 million at a base rate (defined as the 3-month LIBOR rate) plus 16% used to fund the UK Sunny loan portfolio (“UK Term Note”). The effective interest rate at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was 17.05% and 16.93% , respectively. • A maximum borrowing amount of $45 million at a base rate (defined as the 3-month LIBOR rate) plus 18% used to fund working capital (“ELCS Sub-debt Term Note”). The effective interest rate at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was 19.05% and 18.93% , respectively. • A maximum borrowing amount of $25 million bearing interest at the greater of 18% or a base rate (defined as the 3-month LIBOR, with a 1% floor) plus 17% (“4th Tranche Term Note”). The effective interest rate at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was 18.05% and 18.00% , respectively. • A maximum borrowing amount of $25 million bearing interest at the greater of 10% or a base rate (defined as the 3-month LIBOR, with a 1% floor) plus 9% (“Convertible Term Notes”). The effective interest rate at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was 10.05% and 10.00% , respectively. The US Term Note has a maturity date of February 1, 2021, excluding $75 million currently outstanding under the US Term Note which has an August 13, 2018 maturity date. The Company expects the $75 million will not be repaid in 2018 but will instead be extended to a February 1, 2021 maturity date as well. All other notes have a maturity date of January 30, 2018. There are no principal payments due or scheduled until the respective maturity dates. All assets of the Company are pledged as collateral to secure the VPC Facility. The VPC Facility contains certain financial covenants that require, among other things, maintenance of minimum amounts and ratios of working capital; minimum amounts of tangible net worth; maximum ratio of indebtedness; and maximum ratios of charge-offs. The Company was in compliance with all covenants related to the VPC Facility as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 . The Convertible Term Notes were convertible, at the lender's option, into common stock upon the completion of specific defined liquidity events, including certain equity financings, certain mergers and acquisitions or the sale of substantially all of the Company's assets, or during the period from the receipt of notice of the anticipated commencement of a roadshow in connection with the Company's IPO until immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement in connection with such IPO. The Convertible Term Notes were convertible into common stock at the market value (or a set discount to market value) of the shares on the date of conversion and since the Convertible Term Notes included a conversion option that continuously reset as the underlying stock price increased or decreased and provided a fixed value of common stock to the lender, it was considered share-settled debt. The Company did not elect and was not required to measure the Convertible Term Notes at fair value; as such, the Company measured the Convertible Term Notes at the accreted value, determined using the effective interest method. Subsequent to March 31, 2017, during the period from the receipt of notice from the Company to VPC of the anticipated commencement of the roadshow in connection with its IPO until immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, VPC had the option to convert the Convertible Term Notes, in whole or in part, into that number of shares of the Company's common stock determined by the outstanding principal balance of and accrued, but unpaid, interest on the Convertible Term Notes divided by the product of (a) 0.8 multiplied by (b) the IPO price per share. VPC did not elect to exercise its right to convert; however, VPC purchased 2.3 million shares in the offering at the IPO price, and the Company used the proceeds from that purchase, approximately $14.9 million , to reduce an equivalent amount of indebtedness under the Convertible Term Notes. Additionally, upon the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, VPC's option to convert was terminated, and the Convertible Term Notes are no longer convertible in whole or in part into shares of the Company's common stock. Furthermore, VPC agreed to waive approximately $3 million of the redemption premium feature associated with the $14.9 million of Convertible Term Notes the Company repaid. Share-settled debt may settle by providing the holder with a variable number of shares with an aggregate fair value equaling the debt principal outstanding. Share-settled debt may use a discount to the fair value of the share price to determine the number of shares to be delivered, resulting in settlement at a premium, and is analyzed to determine whether the share settled debt contains a beneficial conversion feature or contingent beneficial conversion feature. Share-settled debt may be measured at fair value or at its accreted value depending on the specific terms of the settlement provisions of the debt instrument. The Company evaluates the embedded features within debt instruments to determine if embedded features are required to be bifurcated and recognized as a derivative instrument. If more than one feature is required to be bifurcated, the features are accounted for as a single compound derivative. The fair value of a single compound derivative is recognized as a derivative liability and a debt discount. The derivative liability is measured at fair value on a recurring basis with changes reported in other income (expense). The debt discount is amortized to non-cash interest expense using the effective interest method over the life of the associated debt. In connection with the conversion (i.e.: settlement) of share-settled debt into common stock, the Company will recognize a gain or loss for the change in fair value of the associated derivative liabilities on conversion and a loss on extinguishment of debt from the acceleration of the unamortized balance of the debt discount and issuance costs. See Note 8—Fair Value Measurements for additional information. The Convertible Term Notes contained embedded features that were required to be assessed as derivatives. The Company determined that two of the features it assessed were required to be bifurcated and accounted for under derivative accounting as follows: (i) An embedded redemption feature upon conversion into common shares of the Company's stock ("share-settlement feature") that includes a provision for the adjustment to the conversion price to a price less than the transaction-date fair value price per share if the Company is a party to certain qualifying liquidity or equity financing transactions. The incremental undiscounted present value of the embedded redemption feature is $6.25 million . (ii) An embedded redemption feature that requires the Company to pay an amount up to $5 million ("redemption premium feature") upon a cash redemption at maturity or upon a redemption caused by certain events of default. These two embedded features have been accounted for together as a single compound derivative. The Company estimated the fair value of the compound derivative using a probability-weighted valuation scenario model. The assumptions included in the calculations are highly subjective and subject to interpretation. The fair value of the single compound derivative was recognized as principal draw-downs were made and in proportion to the amount of principal draw-downs to the maximum borrowing amount. The initial fair value of the single compound derivative is recognized and presented as a debt discount and a derivative liability. The debt discount is amortized using the effective interest method from the principal draw-down date(s) through the maturity date. The derivative liability is accounted for in the same manner as a freestanding derivative pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification 815—Derivatives and Hedging ("ASC 815"), with subsequent changes in fair value recorded in earnings each period. ESPV Facility On July 13, 2015, ESPV, entered into an agreement with VPC, providing a credit facility with a maximum borrowing amount of $50 million (the “ESPV Facility”). On October 21, 2015, the ESPV Facility was amended, providing a credit facility with a maximum borrowing amount of $100 million . On July 14, 2016, the ESPV Facility was further amended, increasing the credit facility to a maximum borrowing amount of $150 million . Interest is charged at a base rate (defined as the greater of the 3-month LIBOR rate or 1% per annum) plus 13% for the outstanding balance up to $50 million , plus 12% for the outstanding balance greater than $50 million and plus 13.5% for any amounts in excess of $100 million . On April 27, 2017, the ESPV Facility was further amended to increase the borrowing base to $250 million , decrease each of the interest rates by 1.0% effective July 1, 2019, and add a base rate (defined as the greater of the 3-month LIBOR or 1% per annum) plus 12.75% for borrowing amounts greater than $150 million , which will decrease to the base rate plus 11.75% effective July 1, 2019. The amendment also extended the maturity date for a portion of the ESPV Facility to July 1, 2021, excluding $49 million currently outstanding under the ESPV Facility which has an August 13, 2018 maturity date. The Company expects this amount will not be repaid on its original maturity date but will instead be extended to a July 1, 2021 maturity date as well. The ESPV Facility is used to purchase loan participations from the third party bank partner. The blended interest rate at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was 13.89% and 13.81% , respectively. There are no principal payments due or scheduled until the respective maturity dates. All assets of the Company and ESPV are pledged as collateral to secure the ESPV Facility. The ESPV Facility contains financial covenants, including a borrowing base calculation and certain financial ratios. ESPV was in compliance with all covenants related to the ESPV Facility as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 . VPC and ESPV Facilities: The outstanding balance of Notes payable, net of debt issuance costs, are as follows: (Dollars in thousands) March 31, December 31, US Term Note bearing interest at 3-month LIBOR +11% (2017) + 13-15% (2016) $ 222,000 $ 222,000 UK Term Note bearing interest at 3-month LIBOR + 16% 47,800 47,800 ELCS Sub-debt Term Note bearing interest at 3-month LIBOR + 18% 45,000 45,000 4th Tranche Term Note bearing interest at 3-month LIBOR + 17% 25,000 25,000 Convertible Term Notes bearing interest at 3-month LIBOR + 9% 25,000 10,000 ESPV Term Note bearing interest at 1% per annum + 12-13.5% 150,000 145,500 Debt discount and issuance costs (3,535 ) (1,822 ) Total $ 511,265 $ 493,478 Subsequent to March 31, 2017 , the Company used the net IPO proceeds to pay off the $45 million of the ELCS Sub-debt Note and $25 million of the UK Term Note. In addition, as disclosed above, approximately $14.9 million of the Convertible Term Notes were paid down using proceeds from the IPO. As noted above, subsequent to March 31, 2017, the maturity date of the $150 million ESPV term note was extended to July 2021, excluding $49 million currently outstanding under the ESPV Facility which has an August 13, 2018 maturity date, and approximately $85.0 million of the $142.8 million of notes that mature in January 2018 were paid off or paid down with the net IPO proceeds. The Company has evaluated the interest rates for its debt and believes they represent market rates based on the Company’s size, industry, operations and recent amendments. As a result, the carrying value for the debt approximates the fair value. See Note 13—Subsequent Events for additional information on the impact of the subsequent payments and subsequent amendment to our future debt maturities. Future debt maturities as of March 31, 2017 are as follows: Year (dollars in thousands) March 31, 2017 Remainder of 2017 $ — 2018 266,800 2019 — 2020 — 2021 248,000 Total $ 514,800

Goodwill and Intangible Assets	GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS The carrying value of goodwill at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was approximately $16 million . There were no changes to goodwill during the three months ended March 31, 2017 . Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the estimated fair market value of the net assets acquired by the predecessor parent company, Think Finance, Inc. related to the Elastic and UK reporting units. Of the total goodwill balance, approximately $0.6 million is deductible for tax purposes. The carrying value of acquired intangible assets as of March 31, 2017 , is presented in the table below: (Dollars in thousands) Cost Accumulated Amortization Net Assets subject to amortization: Acquired technology $ 946 $ (946 ) $ — Non-compete 3,404 (1,825 ) 1,579 Customers 126 (126 ) — Assets not subject to amortization: Domain names 680 — 680 Total $ 5,156 $ (2,897 ) $ 2,259 The carrying value of acquired intangible assets as of December 31, 2016 , is presented in the table below: (Dollars in thousands) Cost Accumulated Amortization Net Assets subject to amortization: Acquired technology $ 946 $ (946 ) $ — Non-compete 3,404 (1,780 ) 1,624 Customers 126 (126 ) — Assets not subject to amortization: Domain names 680 — 680 $ 5,156 $ (2,852 ) $ 2,304 Total amortization expense recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was approximately $45 thousand for both periods. The weighted average remaining amortization period for the intangible assets was 8.75 years at March 31, 2017 .

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]
Stock-Based Compensation	STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION In April 2017, the Company effected a 2.5 -for-1 forward stock split of its common stock in connection with the completion of the IPO. Reported share amounts have been retroactively restated for the forward stock split. Stock-based compensation expense recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 totaled approximately $0.7 million and $0.2 million , respectively. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan The 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“2016 Plan”) was adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors on January 5, 2016 and approved by the Company’s stockholders thereafter. The 2016 Plan became effective on June 23, 2016. The 2016 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options to the Company’s employees, and for the grant of non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, dividend equivalent rights, cash-based awards (including annual cash incentives and long-term cash incentives), and any combination thereof to the Company’s employees, directors and consultants. In connection with the 2016 Plan, the Company has reserved for issuance under the 2016 Plan shares of common stock equal to (i) 3,150,000 shares, plus (ii) up to 3,064,027 shares that would otherwise return to the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan as a result of forfeiture, termination or expiration of awards previously granted under the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan and outstanding when the 2016 Plan became effective. The 2016 Plan will automatically terminate 10 years following the date it becomes effective, unless the Company terminates it sooner. In addition, the Company’s Board of Directors has the authority to amend, suspend or terminate the 2016 Plan provided such action does not impair the rights under any outstanding award. 2014 Equity Incentive Plan The Company adopted the 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) on May 1, 2014. The 2014 Plan permitted the grant of incentive stock options, nonstatutory stock options, and restricted stock. On April 27, 2017 the Company's Board of Directors terminated the 2014 Plan as to future awards and confirmed that underlying shares corresponding to awards under the 2014 Plan that were outstanding at the time the 2016 Plan became effective, that are forfeited, terminated or expire, will increase the number of shares available under the 2016 Plan. In conjunction with the 2016 and 2014 Plans, as of March 31, 2017 , the Company had granted stock options and RSUs which are described in more detail below. Stock Options Stock options are awarded to encourage ownership of the Company's common stock by key employees and to provide increased incentive for key employees to render services and to exert maximum effort for the success of the Company. The Company's stock options permit net-share settlement upon exercise. The option exercise price, vesting schedule and exercise period are determined for each grant by the Board of Directors. The Company's stock options generally have a 10 -year contractual term and vest over a 4 -year period from the grant date. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 , the Company granted 111,177 incentive stock options with a weighted average exercise price of $8.08 per share and a weighted average fair value of $2.88 per share. These options have a contractual term of 10 years and vest 25% on the first anniversary of the effective date and 2.083% each month thereafter until full vesting on the fourth anniversary of the effective date; vesting accelerated upon the completion of the IPO (see Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Accounting Changes - Initial Public Offering and Stock-Based Compensation). A summary of stock option activity as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2017 is presented below: Stock Options Shares Weighted Average Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (in years) Outstanding at December 31, 2016 3,501,412 $ 4.18 Granted 111,177 8.08 Exercised (1) (419,915 ) 2.14 Forfeited (17,471 ) 5.44 Outstanding at March 31, 2017 3,175,203 4.58 6.19 Options exercisable at March 31, 2017 2,250,364 3.67 5.26 Available for grant at March 31, 2017 (2) 2,690,881 (1) During the three months ended March 31, 2017 , certain exercised options were net share-settled to cover the required exercise price and withholding tax and the remaining amounts were converted into an equivalent number of shares of the Company's common stock. The Company withheld 111,177 shares which had a value equivalent to the aggregate exercise price of approximately $476 thousand plus the employees' minimum statutory obligation of approximately $422 thousand for the applicable income and other employment taxes, and remitted the cash to the appropriate taxing authorities. The total shares withheld was based on the fair value of the options on their exercise date as determined by the Company. These net-share settlements had the effect of share repurchases by the Company as they reduced the number of shares that would have otherwise have been issued. (2) Includes shares available for grant under the 2016 Plan and the 2014 Plan. At March 31, 2017 , there was approximately $1.8 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.5 years. The total intrinsic value of options exercised for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $2.5 million . Restricted Stock Units RSUs are awarded to serve as a key retention tool for the Company to retain its executives and key employees. RSUs will transfer value to the holder even if the Company’s stock price falls below the price on the date of grant, provided that the recipient provides the requisite service during the period required for the award to “vest.” The weighted-average grant-date fair value for RSUs granted during the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $8.08 . These RSUs have a contractual term of 10 years and vest 25% on the first anniversary of the effective date, and 25% each year thereafter, until full vesting on the fourth anniversary of the effective date. A summary of RSU activity as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2017 is presented below: RSUs Shares Weighted Average Nonvested at December 31, 2016 $ 425,260 $ 8.12 Granted 20,831 $ 8.08 Vested — — Forfeited — — Nonvested at March 31, 2017 $ 446,091 $ 8.12 At March 31, 2017 , there was approximately $1.9 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested RSUs which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.9 years. No RSUs vested during the three months ended March 31, 2017 , and, as such, the total vest-date fair value of RSUs vested for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $0 .

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements	3 Months Ended

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The accounting guidance on fair value measurements establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The Company groups its assets and liabilities measured at fair value in three levels of the fair value hierarchy, based on the fair value measurement technique, as described below: Level 1—Valuation is based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets and liabilities in active exchange markets that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2—Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques with significant assumptions and inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. Level 3—Valuation is derived from model-based techniques that use inputs and significant assumptions that are supported by little or no observable market data. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include the use of pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques. The Company monitors the market conditions and evaluates the fair value hierarchy levels at least quarterly. For any transfers in and out of the levels of the fair value hierarchy, the Company discloses the fair value measurement at the beginning of the reporting period during which the transfer occurred. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , there were no significant transfers between levels. The level of fair value hierarchy within which a fair value measurement in its entirety falls is based on the lowest-level input that is most significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. In the determination of the classification of assets and liabilities in Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the Company considers all available information, including observable market data, indications of market conditions, and its understanding of the valuation techniques and significant inputs used. Based upon the specific facts and circumstances, judgments are made regarding the significance of the Level 3 inputs to the fair value measurements of the respective assets and liabilities in their entirety. If the valuation techniques that are most significant to the fair value measurements are principally derived from assumptions and inputs that are corroborated by little or no observable market data, the asset or liability is classified as Level 3. The Company has evaluated Loans receivable, net of allowance for loan losses, Receivable from CSO lenders, Receivable from payment processors and Accounts payable and accrued expenses, and believes the carrying value approximates the fair value due to the short-term nature of these balances. The Company has also evaluated the interest rates for Notes payable and believes they represent market rates based on the Company’s size, industry, operations and recent amendments. As a result, the carrying value for Notes payable approximates the fair value. The Company classifies its fair value measurement techniques for the fair value disclosures associated with Loans receivable, net of allowance for loan losses, Receivable from CSO lenders, Receivable from payment processors, Accounts payable and accrued liabilities and Notes payable, net as Level 3 in accordance with ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820-10”). The Convertible Term Notes contained embedded features that were required to be recognized as a derivative liability. See Note 5—Notes Payable for additional information. Upon the initial $10 million draw on the Convertible Term Notes in October 2016, a derivative liability of approximately $1.7 million was recorded at fair value and was included as debt discount in Notes Payable and as a Derivative Liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2016. Upon the $15 million draw on the Convertible Term Notes in January 2017, an additional derivative liability of approximately $2.5 million was recorded at fair value and was included as a debt discount in Notes Payable and as a Derivative Liability. The weighted-average effective interest rate associated with the debt discount was approximately 27% . The change in the fair value of the derivative liability of $133 thousand and $0 was recognized as Non-operating expense for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Income Statements. This liability is considered to be Level 3 in accordance with ASC 820-10 and is measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company has no derivative amounts subject to enforceable master netting arrangements that are offset on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The table below summarizes the changes in the fair value of the liabilities categorized as Level 3 instruments for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 : (Dollars in thousands) Embedded Derivative Liability in Convertible Term Notes Balance, December 31, 2015 $ — Issuance — Fair value adjustment (Non-Operating expense in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements) — Balance, March 31, 2016 $ — Balance, December 31, 2016 $ 1,750 Issuance 2,517 Fair value adjustment (Non-Operating expense in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements) 133 Balance, March 31, 2017 $ 4,400 The Company’s derivative liability associated with its Convertible Term Notes is measured at fair value using a probability-weighted valuation scenario model based on the likelihood of the Company successfully completing an IPO or other qualified financing. The inputs and assumptions included in the calculations are highly subjective and subject to interpretation and include highly subjective inputs and assumptions including estimates of redemption and conversion behaviors. Significant unobservable estimates of redemption and conversion behaviors include (i) the 75% cumulative probability for the Company’s successful achievement of an IPO or other qualified financing prior to January 31, 2018 and (ii) the 90% probability that the Convertible Term Notes will be required to be redeemed at their maturation on January 31, 2018 (i.e., the holder will opt-out of converting the Convertible Term Notes into shares of the Company's common stock). The floating rate is based on the three-month LIBOR rate. The risk-free interest rate is based on the implied yield available on US Treasury zero-coupon issues over the expected life of the Convertible Term Notes. The expected life is impacted by all of the underlying assumptions and calibration of the Company’s model. Significant increases or decreases in inputs could result in significantly lower or higher fair value measurements. The ranges of significant inputs and assumptions used in measuring the fair value of the embedded derivative liability in the Convertible Term Notes are as follows: March 31, 2017 Expected life (months) 10 Conversion discount percentage 20 % Floating rate 10.15% - 10.59% Risk-free rate 1.01 % Market yield 23.64 % Non-marketability discount 8 % Non-marketability discount volatility 50.8 % During the period from the receipt of notice from the Company to VPC of the anticipated commencement of the roadshow in connection with its IPO until immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, VPC had the option to convert the Convertible Term Notes, in whole or in part, into a number of shares of the Company's common stock determined by the outstanding principal balance of and accrued, but unpaid, interest on the Convertible Term Notes divided by the product of (a) 0.8 multiplied by (b) the IPO price per share. VPC did not elect to exercise its right to convert, and an unpaid balance on the Convertible Term Notes remained outstanding after the IPO. Upon the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, VPC's option to convert was terminated, and the Convertible Term Notes are no longer convertible in whole or part into shares of the Company's common stock; as a result, the share-settlement ceased to be an embedded derivative feature requiring separate recognition and disclosure. However, a pro-rata portion of the redemption premium feature to be paid upon the cash redemption at maturity, or upon a redemption caused by certain events of default, remains an embedded derivative feature that the Company will be required to assess and recognize as a derivative liability.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	INCOME TAXES Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 consists of the following: March 31, (Dollars in thousands) 2017 2016 Current income tax expense: Federal $ 143 $ 129 State 235 125 Total current income tax expense 378 254 Deferred income tax expense (benefit): Federal 1,276 5,169 State 173 443 2016 stock options (690 ) — Total deferred income tax expense 759 5,612 Total income tax expense $ 1,137 $ 5,866 The Company's tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items arising in that quarter. In each quarter, the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate, and if the estimated annual effective tax rate changes, the Company would make a cumulative adjustment in that quarter. The Company’s income tax expense was $1.1 million and $5.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The Company’s US effective tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , adjusted for discrete items, were 46% and 45% , respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 , the Company’s US effective tax rate differed from the standard corporate federal income tax rate of 35% primarily due to its corporate state tax obligations in the states where it has lending activities and its permanent non-deductible items. The Company's US cash effective tax rate was approximately 6% . For purposes of evaluating the need for a deferred tax valuation allowance, significant weight is given to evidence that can be objectively verified. The following provides an overview of the assessment that was performed for both the domestic and foreign deferred tax assets, net. US deferred tax assets, net At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the Company did not establish a valuation allowance for its US deferred tax assets (“DTA”) based on management’s expectation of generating sufficient taxable income in a look forward period over the next three to five years. The unutilized NOL carryforward from US operations at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was approximately $28.6 million . The NOL carryforward expires beginning in 2034. The ultimate realization of the resulting deferred tax asset is dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income prior to the expiration of this carryforward. The Company considered the following positive and negative factors when making their assessment regarding the ultimate realizability of the deferred tax assets. Significant positive factors included the following: Ø The Company had taxable income for the three months ended March 31, 2017 . For 2017 the Company is forecasting US taxable income as it continues to scale its business and generate even greater operating income. Ø The 2017 forecast used to determine the realizability of the deferred tax assets did not consider the completion of the IPO. Completion of the IPO in 2017 will generate even greater US taxable income than what was in the Company's existing forecast. If the IPO is considered as part of the forecast, the proceeds from the IPO that were used to pay down debt would further reduce interest expense. This would result in even higher taxable income and utilize a majority of the NOL in 2017. Ø In 2016 the Company continued to grow its operating income (from $9 million in 2015 to $48 million in 2016). If the Company had not postponed its IPO in early January 2016 due to market conditions, the Company would have had US taxable income in 2016 and begun utilizing its NOL (in 2016 the Company also planned to use the IPO proceeds to pay down debt and reduce interest expense). Ø Management’s success in developing accurate forecasts and management’s track record of launching new and successful products at Think Finance, which generated significant taxable income, is another source of positive evidence which was evaluated. The Company believes that the unique circumstance of the 2014 spin-off from a successful company provides it with several positive objectively verifiable factors that would not normally be available to a new company with a limited operating history. Significant negative factor included: Ø The Company has cumulative losses and a lack of taxable income from the 2014 spin-off through 2016. A net taxable loss was incurred for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 due to the establishment of an infrastructure for the Company separate from Think Finance while the Company was scaling the growth of the relatively new products of Rise and Elastic. Additionally, the Company originally forecasted US taxable income for the year ended December 31, 2016 based upon the completion of an IPO in early 2016. With the postponement of the IPO due to market conditions the additional interest expense incurred associated with higher debt balances was a significant contributor to the net taxable loss for the year ended December 31, 2016 as compared to the forecasted results for 2016. The Company has given due consideration to all the factors and believes the positive evidence outweighs the negative evidence and has concluded that the US deferred tax asset is expected to be realized based on management’s expectation of generating sufficient taxable income over the next three to five years. Although realization is not assured, management believes it is more likely than not that all of the recorded deferred tax assets will be realized. The amount of the deferred tax assets considered realizable, however, could be adjusted in the future if estimates of future taxable income change. The Company also had a US stock option deduction carryforward of approximately $8.9 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , for which the tax benefit would be applied as a credit directly to additional paid-in capital. The stock option deduction carryforward expires in 2034. UK deferred tax assets, net At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the Company recognized a full valuation allowance for its foreign deferred tax assets due to the lack of sufficient objective evidence regarding the realization of these assets in the foreseeable future. The Company assesses the UK deferred tax assets on an annual basis, and, as a result, there have been no changes as of March 31, 2017 . Regardless of the deferred tax valuation allowance recognized at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the Company continues to retain NOL carryforwards for foreign income tax purposes of approximately $31.5 million , available to offset future foreign taxable income. To the extent that the Company generates taxable income in the future to utilize the tax benefits of the related deferred tax assets, subject to certain potential limitations, it may be able to reduce its effective tax rate by reducing the valuation allowance. The Company’s foreign NOL carryforward of approximately $31.5 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 can be carried forward indefinitely.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments Contingencies and Guarantees	COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES Contingencies Currently and from time to time, the Company may become a defendant in various legal and regulatory actions. While the Company cannot determine the ultimate outcome of these actions, it believes their resolution will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. The Company is cooperating with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”) related to a civil investigative demand (“CID”) received by Think Finance requesting information about the operations of Think Finance prior to the spin-off. The CFPB has not made any specific allegation of violation(s) of law or initiated litigation in connection with the CID as of this date. Commitments The Elastic product, which offers lines of credit to consumers, had approximately $135.6 million and $110.7 million in available and unfunded credit lines at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively. While these amounts represented the total available unused credit lines, ESPV has not experienced and does not anticipate that all line of credit customers will access their entire available credit lines at any given point in time. ESPV has not recorded a loan loss reserve for unfunded credit lines as ESPV has the ability to cancel commitments within a relatively short timeframe. Guarantees In connection with its CSO programs, the Company guarantees consumer loan payment obligations to CSO lenders and is required to purchase any defaulted loans it has guaranteed. The guarantee represents an obligation to purchase specific loans that go into default.

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	SUBSEQUENT EVENTS The Company evaluated subsequent events and determined there has been no material subsequent events that required recognition or additional disclosure in these financial statements, except as follows: ESPV Facility On April 27, 2017, the ESPV Facility was amended to increase the borrowing base to $250 million , decrease each of the base rates by 1.0% effective July 1, 2019 and add a base rate of 12.75% for borrowing amounts greater than $150 million , which will decrease to 11.75% effective July 1, 2019. The amendment also extended the maturity date for the ESPV Facility to July 1, 2021, with the exception of $49 million of the ESPV Facility which matures on August 13, 2018. The Company made draws on the ESPV Facility of $11 million subsequent to March 31, 2017. Initial Public Offering: On April 6, 2017, the Company completed its IPO in which it issued and sold 14,260,000 shares of common stock at a price of $6.50 per share to the public. The Company used the net IPO proceeds to pay off the $45 million ELCS Sub-debt Note, pay down approximately $14.9 million of the Convertible Term Notes and pay down $25 million of the UK Term Note. The financial statements as of March 31, 2017 and 2016 including share and per share amounts, do not include the effects of the IPO, except for the retroactive stock split as required by GAAP. Additionally, for the three months ended March 31, 2017, basic and diluted earnings per share on a pro forma basis, would have been $0.04 per share, after including the effect of the following: (i) the 2.5 to 1 stock split, (ii) the conversion of all preferred stock into common stock upon the IPO and (iii) the inclusion of the 14.3 million common shares issued in the IPO.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2017 and for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and a variable interest entity ("VIE") where the Company is the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial information included in this report has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and conform, as applicable, to general practices within the finance company industry. The principles for interim financial information do not require the inclusion of all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Therefore, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-207888), as amended (the "Registration Statement"), for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on April 6, 2017 (the "Registration Statement"). In the opinion of the Company’s management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Stock-Based Compensation	Stock options granted to certain employees vest upon the satisfaction of the earlier of either a service condition or a liquidity condition. The service condition for these awards is generally satisfied over four years . The liquidity condition is satisfied upon the occurrence of a qualifying event, defined as the completion of the IPO, which occurred on April 6, 2017. The satisfaction of this vesting condition accelerated the expense attribution period for those stock options, and the Company recognized a cumulative share-based compensation expense for the portion of those stock options that met the liquidity condition. Restricted stock units (RSUs) granted to both employees and non-employee directors vest upon the satisfaction of a service condition. The service condition for these awards is generally satisfied over one year for non-employee directors or four years for employees.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the valuation of the allowance for loan losses, goodwill, long-lived and intangible assets, deferred revenues, contingencies, the fair value of derivatives, the income tax provision, valuation of stock-based compensation and the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current data and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. Actual results could differ from those estimates
Equity Issuance Costs	Costs incurred related to the Company's IPO have been deferred and included in Prepaid expenses and other assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and will be charged against the gross proceeds of the IPO (i.e., charged against additional paid-in capital in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements) as of the closing of the IPO on April 11, 2017 .
Recently Adopted and to be Adopted Accounting Standards	Recently Adopted Accounting Standards In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting ("ASU 2016-09"). ASU 2016-09 is intended to simplify the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted all amendments of ASU 2016-09 on a prospective basis, except as noted below, as of January 1, 2017 which had the following effects on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows: • Recognized a cumulative effect adjustment to accumulated deficit of approximately $3.4 million for the deferred tax asset attributable to excess tax benefits on stock compensation. • Recognized excess tax benefits of $690 thousand in earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2017 . The Company discontinued recording excess tax benefits within additional paid-in capital. • Modified its computation of potentially dilutive shares for earnings per share using the treasury stock method by excluding excess tax benefits (deficiencies) as a component of assumed proceeds; as excess tax benefits are no longer recognized within additional paid-in capital. • Included excess tax benefits for stock-based compensation in cash flows from operating activities rather than cash flows from financing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. • Presented employee taxes paid as a financing activity on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows on a retrospective basis. Accounting Standards to be Adopted in Future Periods In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). The purpose of ASU 2017-04 is to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill. The amendments modify the concept of impairment from the condition that exists when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value to the condition that exists when the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value. An entity no longer will determine goodwill impairment by calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by assigning the fair value of a reporting unit to all of its assets and liabilities as if that reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. This guidance is effective for public companies for goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2017-04 on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force ("ASU 2016-18"). The purpose of ASU 2016-18 is to reduce diversity in practice related to the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows. Under this new guidance, the statement of cash flows during the reporting period must explain the change in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. ASU 2016-18 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, ASU 2016-18 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-18 on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements; however, the Company's preliminary assessment of the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-18 is that, upon adoption, the Company will include any restricted cash balances as part of cash and cash equivalents in its condensed statements of cash flows and not present the change in restricted cash balances as a separate line item under investing activities as it currently presented. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments ("ASU 2016-15") . ASU 2016-15 is intended to reduce diversity in practice for certain cash receipts and cash payments that are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. For public entities, ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-15 on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company does not currently expect that the adoption of ASU 2016-15 will have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). ASU 2016-13 is intended to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current US GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates to improve the quality of information available to financial statement users about expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date. For public entities, ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-13 on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company expects to complete its analysis of the impact in 2017. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU 2016-02"). ASU 2016-02 is intended to improve the reporting of leasing transactions to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. ASU 2016-02 will require organizations that lease assets to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is still assessing the potential impact of ASU 2016-02 on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company expects to complete its analysis of the impact in 2017. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of Effective Date ("ASU 2015-14"), which defers the effective date of this guidance by one year, to the annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. A reporting entity may choose to early adopt the guidance as of the original effective date. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Revenues from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing ("ASU 2016-10"), which clarifies the guidance related to identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation. Upon adoption of the new revenue recognition guidance, the Company anticipates using the alternative transition method that requires the application of the guidance only to contracts that are uncompleted on the date of initial application. The Company completed its initial assessment in evaluating the potential impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and based on its initial assessment determined that its financial contracts are excluded from the scope of ASU 2014-09. As a result of the scope exception for financial contracts, the Company's management has determined that there will be no material changes to the recognition timing and classification of revenues and expenses; additionally, the Company's management does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-09 to have a significant impact to pretax income upon adoption. The Company will continue to evaluate the impacts of ASU 2014-09 through the date of adoption to ensure that its initial assessment continues to remain accurate. Additionally, the Company is continuing its assessment of ASU 2014-09’s impact on its condensed financial statement disclosures.
