SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTI

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS Nature of Operations CURO is a growth-oriented, technology-enabled, highly-diversified consumer finance company serving a wide range of underbanked consumers in the United States ("U.S."), Canada and, through February 25, 2019, the U.K. U.K. Segment Placed into Administration On February 25, 2019, the Company announced that a proposed Scheme of Arrangement ("SOA"), as described in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed January 31, 2019, would not be implemented. In accordance with the provisions of the U.K. Insolvency Act 1986 and as approved by the boards of directors of the Company’s U.K. subsidiaries, Curo Transatlantic Limited and SRC Transatlantic Limited (collectively, “the U.K. Subsidiaries”), insolvency practitioners from KPMG were appointed as administrators (“Administrators”) for the U.K. Subsidiaries. The effect of the U.K. Subsidiaries’ entry into administration was to place their management, affairs, business and property under the direct control of the Administrators. Accordingly, the Company deconsolidated the U.K. Subsidiaries as of February 25, 2019 and presented the U.K. Subsidiaries as Discontinued Operations for all periods presented in this Form 10-Q. Basis of Presentation The terms “CURO" and the “Company” refer to CURO Group Holdings Corp. and its directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries as a consolidated entity, except where otherwise stated. The term "CFTC" refers to CURO Financial Technologies Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and its directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries as a consolidated entity, except where otherwise stated. The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements ("Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements") in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), and with the accounting policies described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 18, 2019 ("2018 Form 10-K"). Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for any other interim period or the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to enable a reasonable understanding of the information presented. Additionally, in September 2018, and subsequently expanded in June 2019, the SEC changed the definition of a smaller reporting company ("SRC"). The change in definition of an SRC allows more registrants to qualify to report under scaled disclosure requirements. Under these rules, CURO met the definition of an SRC as of June 30, 2019. Refer to "--FASB Definition of an SRC as related to the CECL standard and evaluation of the impact of the CECL standard" for information regarding the impact on the Company of meeting the definition of an SRC. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes reflect all adjustments (consisting only of adjustments of a normal and recurring nature) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the Company's results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented. On February 25, 2019, the Company's United Kingdom ("U.K.") segment, as defined by ASC 280, was placed into administration, resulting in the treatment of it as discontinued operations per ASC 205-20. Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ("Form 10-Q"), current and prior-period financial information presents the U.K. segment as discontinued operations as required. For further information about the placement of the segment into administration, refer to "--Nature of Operations" below. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes included in the 2018 Form 10-K. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for future interim periods or for the year ending December 31, 2019 . Principles of Consolidation The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of CURO and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Equity Investment in Unconsolidated Entity During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 , the Company invested an additional $6.6 million in Cognical Holdings, Inc. ("Zibby"), offset by a $3.7 million carrying value adjustment as a result of the additional investment. As of September 30, 2019 , the Company owned 42.3% of Zibby. See Note 8 - "Fair Value Measurements" for additional detail on Zibby's fair value considerations for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 . Use of Estimates The preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Estimates also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Some of the significant estimates that the Company made in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include allowances for loan losses, certain assumptions related to equity investments, goodwill and intangibles, accruals related to self-insurance, credit services organization ("CSO") liability for losses, and estimated tax liabilities. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Open-End Loss Recognition Effective January 1, 2019, the Company modified the timeframe for which it charges-off Open-End loans and made related refinements to its loss provisioning methodology. Prior to January 1, 2019, the Company deemed Open-End loans uncollectible and charged-off when a customer missed a scheduled payment and the loan was considered past-due. Because of the continued shift to Open-End loans in Canada and analysis of payment patterns on early-stage versus late-stage delinquencies, the Company revised its estimates and now considers Open-End loans uncollectible when the loan has been contractually past-due for 90 consecutive days. Consequently, past-due Open-End loans and related accrued interest now remain in loans receivable for 90 days before being charged-off against the allowance for loan losses. All recoveries on charged-off loans are credited to the allowance for loan losses. Quarterly, the Company evaluates the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses compared to the related gross loans receivable balances that include accrued interest. The aforementioned change was treated as a change in accounting estimate for accounting purposes and applied prospectively effective January 1, 2019. The change affects comparability with prior periods as follows: • Gross combined loans receivable: balances as of September 30, 2019 include $46.1 million of Open-End loans that are up to 90 days past-due with related accrued interest, while such balances for periods prior to March 31, 2019 do not include any past-due loans. • Revenues: for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 , gross revenues include interest earned on past-due loan balances of approximately $15 million and $35 million , respectively, while revenues in prior-year periods do not include comparable amounts. • Provision for Losses : prospectively, from January 1, 2019, past-due, unpaid balances plus related accrued interest charge-off on day 91. Provision expense is affected by total charge-offs less total recoveries ("NCOs") plus changes to the Allowance for loan losses. Because NCOs prospectively include unpaid principal and up to 90 days of related accrued interest, NCO amounts and rates are higher and the Open-End Allowance for loan losses as a percentage of Open-End gross loans receivable is higher. The Open-End Allowance for loan losses as a percentage of Open-End gross loans receivable increased to 17.2% at September 30, 2019 , compared to 9.8% in the comparable prior-year period. Correction of Immaterial Errors in Previously-Issued Financial Statements During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company corrected immaterial errors in its prior presentation of cash flows for loan originations and collections on principal. The Company determined that the historical presentation was in error by not conforming to US GAAP because it included outflows for loan originations and receipts on collections in Cash provided by operating activities rather than in Cash used in investing activities. Accordingly, the Company corrected previously filed financial statements by reclassifying cash outflows for loan originations and receipts on collections of principal of $412.4 million from net Cash provided by operating activities to net Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 . Total cash flows for each period presented did not change. The Company concluded that the errors were immaterial to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 . The Company has revised its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 presented in this Form 10-Q. A summary of the correction follows (in thousands): Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 As Reported: (1) Net cash used in continuing operating activities $ (55,356 ) Net cash used in continuing investing activities (8,988 ) As Corrected: Net cash provided by continuing operating activities 357,079 Net cash used in continuing investing activities (421,423 ) (1) "As reported" balances include amounts from continuing operations historically presented within these captions. Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements ASU 2016-02 In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") established Topic 842, Leases , by issuing ASU No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize leases on the balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2019 using the alternative modified retrospective method, also known as the transition relief method, permitted under ASU 2018-11, which allows companies to not recast comparative periods in the period of adoption. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance which, among other things, permits companies to not reassess prior conclusions on lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company also elected to combine lease and non-lease components and to exclude short-term leases, defined as having an initial term of 12 months or less, from the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company did not elect the hindsight practical expedient. As of September 30, 2019, the Company held right of use assets ("ROU assets") and operating lease liabilities ("lease liabilities") of $118.3 million and $126.0 million , respectively. Prepaid rent of $2.7 million and deferred liabilities of $10.9 million were included in ROU assets and lease liabilities, respectively, at the time of adoption. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company reduced initial opening balances for ROU assets and lease liabilities recorded on January 1, 2019 by $18.0 million as a result of a previous misapplication of certain provisions of Topic 842. The impact of this misapplication on the Company's financial position, results of operations, and cash flows was not material. See Note 14 - "Leases" for additional information and disclosures required by Topic 842. ASU 2018-02 In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive income ("ASU 2018-02"), which permits the reclassification to retained earnings of disproportionate tax effects in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) caused by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 ("2017 Tax Act"). The Company adopted ASU 2018-02 as of January 1, 2019, which did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Related to the Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") Standard ASU 2016-13 In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” and subsequent amendments to the guidance: ASU 2018-19 in November 2018, ASU 2019-04 in April 2019 and ASU 2019-05 in May 2019. The standard, as amended, changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The standard will replace the current “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost. For available-for-sale debt securities, entities will be required to record allowances rather than reduce the carrying amount, as they currently do under the other-than-temporary impairment model. The standard also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. The amendment will affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. ASU 2019-04 clarifies that equity instruments without readily determinable fair values for which an entity has elected the measurement alternative should be remeasured to fair value as of the date that an observable transaction occurred. ASU 2019-05 provides an option to irrevocably elect to measure certain individual financial assets at fair value instead of amortized cost. The amendments should be applied on either a prospective transition or modified-retrospective approach depending on the subtopic. As issued, ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein. The Company is evaluating its alternatives with respect to the available accounting methods under ASU 2016‑13, including the fair value option. If the fair value option is not utilized, adoption of ASU 2016-13 will increase the allowance for credit losses with a resulting negative adjustment to retained earnings on the date of adoption. Additionally, as disclosed below in "--FASB Definition of an SRC as related to the CECL standard and evaluation of the impact of the CECL standard", the Company expects to defer the adoption of ASU 2016-13 until at least January 1, 2021. ASU 2019-05 In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) , which amends ASU 2016-13 to allow companies to irrevocably elect, upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, the fair value option on financial instruments that (i) were previously recorded at amortized cost and (ii) are within the scope of ASC 326-20 if the instruments are eligible for the fair value option under ASC 825-10. The fair value option election does not apply to held-to-maturity debt securities. Entities are required to make this election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. ASU 2019-05’s amendments should be applied on a modified-retrospective basis by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the statement of financial position as of the date that an entity adopted the amendments in ASU 2016-13. For entities that have adopted ASU 2016-13, the amendments in ASU 2019-05 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods therein. An entity may early adopt the ASU in any interim period after its issuance if the entity has adopted ASU 2016-13. For all other entities, the effective date will be the same as the effective date for ASU 2016-13. The Company expects to elect the option to defer adoption to a later effective date, as further described below in "--FASB Definition of an SRC as related to the CECL standard and evaluation of the impact of the CECL standard ." The Company is currently evaluating the methods and impact of adopting this new standard on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. ASU 2019-04 In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses , Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, which clarifies certain aspects of accounting for credit losses, hedging activities, and financial instruments. The ASU’s amendments apply to all entities within the scope of the affected guidance. Accrued interest - Amortized cost basis is defined in ASU 2016-13 as "the amount at which a financing receivable or investment is originated or acquired, adjusted for applicable accrued interest, accretion or amortization of premium, discount, and net deferred fees or costs, collection of cash, write-offs, foreign exchange, and fair value hedge accounting adjustments." To address stakeholders’ concerns that the inclusion of accrued interest in the definition of amortized cost basis could make application of the credit loss guidance operationally burdensome, ASU 2019-04 provides certain alternatives for the measurement of the allowance for credit losses ("ALL") on accrued interest receivable ("AIR"). These measurement alternatives include (i) measuring an ALL on AIR separately, (ii) electing to provide separate disclosure of the AIR component of amortized cost as a practical expedient, and (iii) making accounting policy elections to simplify certain aspects of the presentation and measurement of such AIR. As issued, for entities that have adopted ASU 2016-13, the amendments in ASU 2019-04 related to ASU 2016-13 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods therein. ASU 2019-04’s amendments should be applied "on a modified-retrospective basis by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance in the statement of financial position as of the date an entity adopted the amendments in ASU 2016-13." Certain disclosures are also required. Due to the FASB's decision to allow a deferment option for SRCs applying ASU 2016-13, the Company expects to defer adoption of both ASU 2016-13 and ASU 2019-04. FASB Definition of an SRC as related to the CECL standard and evaluation of the impact of the CECL standard On October 16, 2019, the FASB approved a proposal to defer required adoption of the CECL standard for SRCs until fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Under current SEC definitions, CURO met the definition of an SRC as of June 30, 2019. The FASB further confirmed that for CECL, a company makes an evaluation of SRC status in accordance with SEC rules at the time of standard effectiveness (i.e., as of June 30, 2019) and that status is effective for purposes of adopting the CECL standard regardless of future changes in SRC status. The FASB is expected to codify the approved proposal with issuance of a new ASU during the fourth quarter of 2019. The Company will continue to monitor the standard-setting activities of the FASB and expects to elect to defer adoption of the CECL standard. The Company is currently evaluating the methods and impact of adopting the CECL standard on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. SEC Disclosure Update In August 2018, the SEC adopted final rules under SEC Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification , amending certain disclosure requirements that had become redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated or superseded. Other than the amendment's expanded disclosure requirement for interim financial statements to disclose both current and comparative quarter and year-to-date reconciliations of changes in stockholders' equity, it did not have a material impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or Notes thereto for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 , nor is it expected to have a material impact on the Company's annual Consolidated Financial Statements or Notes thereto.

VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES	VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES In August 2018, the Company closed the Non-Recourse Canada SPV facility, whereby certain loan receivables were sold to wholly-owned, bankruptcy-remote special purpose subsidiaries ("VIEs") to collateralize debt incurred under the facility. As the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIEs, it includes the assets and liabilities related to the VIEs in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. As required, the Company parenthetically discloses on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets the VIEs’ assets that can only be used to settle the VIEs' obligations and liabilities if the VIEs’ creditors have no recourse against the Company's general credit. The carrying amounts of consolidated VIEs' assets and liabilities associated with the VIE subsidiaries were as follows (in thousands): September 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 Assets Restricted cash $ 21,897 $ 12,840 Gross loans receivable less allowance for loan losses 206,158 136,187 Total Assets $ 228,055 $ 149,027 Liabilities Accounts payable and accrued liabilities $ 7,259 $ 4,980 Deferred revenue 44 40 Accrued interest 777 831 Intercompany payable 93,671 44,330 Long-term debt 102,483 107,479 Total Liabilities $ 204,234 $ 157,660

Guarantees [Abstract]
CREDIT SERVICES ORGANIZATION	CREDIT SERVICES ORGANIZATION The CSO fee receivables under CSO programs were $13.4 million and $14.3 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively. The Company bears the risk of loss through its guarantee to purchase specific customer loans that are in default with the lenders. The terms of these loans range up to six months. See the 2018 Form 10-K for further details of the Company's accounting policy. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , the maximum amount payable under all such guarantees was $60.4 million and $66.9 million , respectively. If the Company is required to pay any portion of the total amount of the loans it has guaranteed, it will attempt to recover some or the entire amount from the applicable customers. The Company holds no collateral in respect of the guarantees. The Company estimates a liability for losses associated with the guaranty provided to the CSO lenders using assumptions and methodologies similar to the Allowance for loan losses, which it recognizes for its consumer loans. Liability for incurred losses on CSO loans Guaranteed by the Company was $10.2 million and $12.0 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively. The Company placed $5.9 million and $17.2 million in collateral accounts for the benefit of lenders at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 , respectively, which is reflected in "Prepaid expenses and other" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The balances required to be maintained in these collateral accounts vary by lender, typically based on a percentage of the outstanding loan balances held by the lender. The percentage of outstanding loan balances required for collateral is negotiated between the Company and each such lender.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
DEBT	DEBT Debt consisted of the following (in thousands): September 30, 2019 December 31, 2018 8.25% Senior Secured Notes (due 2025) $ 677,924 $ 676,661 Non-Recourse Canada SPV Facility 102,483 107,479 Senior Revolver 25,000 20,000 Debt $ 805,407 $ 804,140 8.25% Senior Secured Notes In August 2018, the Company issued $690.0 million of 8.25% Senior Secured Notes which mature on September 1, 2025 (" 8.25% Senior Secured Notes"). Interest on the notes is payable semiannually, in arrears, on March 1 and September 1. In connection with the 8.25% Senior Secured Notes, the balance of capitalized financing costs of $12.1 million , net of amortization, is included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of "Debt." These costs are amortized over the term of the 8.25% Senior Secured Notes as a component of interest expense. The proceeds of this issuance were used (i) to redeem the outstanding 12.00% Senior Secured Notes of CFTC, (ii) to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness under the five -year revolving credit facility of CURO Receivables Finance I, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary, which consisted of a term loan and revolving borrowing capacity, (iii) for general corporate purposes and (iv) to pay fees, expenses, premiums and accrued interest in connection therewith. 12.00% Senior Secured Notes In February and November 2017, CFTC issued $470.0 million and $135.0 million , respectively, of 12.00% Senior Secured Notes due March 1, 2022. In connection with these 12.00% Senior Secured Notes, the Company capitalized financing costs of $18.3 million . These costs were being amortized over the term of the 12.00% Senior Secured Notes as a component of interest expense. On March 7, 2018, CFTC redeemed $77.5 million of its 12.00% Senior Secured Notes using a portion of the proceeds from the Company's initial public offering, as required by the underlying indenture (the transaction whereby the 12.00% Senior Secured Notes were partially redeemed, the “Redemption”), at a price equal to 112.00% of the principal amount of the 12.00% Senior Secured Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest paid thereon, to the date of Redemption. The Redemption price and the amortization of a corresponding portion of the capitalized financing costs resulted in a loss on Redemption of $11.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Following the Redemption, $527.5 million of the original outstanding principal amount of the 12.00% Senior Secured Notes remained outstanding. The Redemption was conducted pursuant to the Indenture governing the 12.00% Senior Secured Notes (the “Indenture”), dated as of February 15, 2017, by and among CFTC, the guarantors party thereto and TMI Trust Company, as trustee and collateral agent. The remainder of the 12.00% Senior Secured Notes were extinguished effective September 7, 2018 using proceeds from the 8.25% Senior Secured Notes as described above. The early extinguishment of the 12.00% Senior Secured Notes resulted in a pretax loss of $69.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2018. Non-Recourse Canada SPV Facility On August 2, 2018, CURO Canada Receivables Limited Partnership, a newly created, bankruptcy-remote special purpose vehicle (the "Canada SPV Borrower") and a wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into a four -year revolving credit facility with Waterfall Asset Management, LLC that provided for C$175.0 million of initial borrowing capacity and the ability to expand such capacity up to C$250.0 million ("Non-Recourse Canada SPV Facility"). The loans bear interest at an annual rate of 6.75% plus the three-month CDOR. The Canada SPV Borrower also pays a 0.50% per annum commitment fee on the unused portion of the commitments. In April 2019, the facility's maturity date was extended one year , to 2023. As of September 30, 2019 , outstanding borrowings under the Non-Recourse Canada SPV Facility were $102.5 million , net of deferred financing costs of $3.3 million . For further information on the Non-Recourse Canada SPV, refer to Note 2, "Variable Interest Entities." Senior Revolver On September 1, 2017, the Company entered into a $25.0 million Senior Secured Revolving Loan Facility (the “Senior Revolver”). The terms of the Senior Revolver generally conform to the related provisions in the Indenture dated February 15, 2017 for the 12.00% Senior Secured Notes and complements the Company's other financing sources, while providing seasonal short-term liquidity. In February 2018, the Senior Revolver capacity was increased to $29.0 million as permitted by the Indenture to the 12.00% Senior Secured Notes, based upon consolidated tangible assets. Additionally, in November 2018, the Senior Revolver capacity was increased to $50.0 million , as permitted by the Indenture to the 8.25% Senior Secured Notes. The Senior Revolver is now syndicated with participation by four banks. Under the Senior Revolver, there is $50.0 million maximum availability, including up to $5.0 million of standby letters of credit, for a one -year term, renewable for successive terms following annual review. The current term expires June 30, 2020. The Senior Revolver accrues interest at one -month LIBOR plus 5.00% (subject to a 5% overall minimum) and is repayable on demand. The terms of the Senior Revolver require that its outstanding balance be zero for at least 30 consecutive days in each calendar year. The Senior Revolver is guaranteed by all subsidiaries that guarantee the 8.25% Senior Secured Notes and is secured by a lien on substantially all assets of CURO and the guarantor subsidiaries that is senior to the lien securing the 8.25% Senior Secured Notes. Additionally, the negative covenants of the Senior Revolver generally conform to the related provisions in the Indenture for the 8.25% Senior Secured Notes. The revolver had an outstanding balance of $25.0 million at September 30, 2019 . The Senior Revolver contains various conditions to borrowing and affirmative, negative and financial maintenance covenants. Certain of the more significant covenants are (i) minimum eligible collateral value, (ii) consolidated interest coverage ratio and (iii) consolidated leverage ratio. The Senior Revolver also contains various events of default, the occurrence of which could result in termination of the lenders’ commitments to lend and the acceleration of all obligations under the Senior Revolver. Cash Money Revolving Credit Facility Cash Money Cheque Cashing, Inc., a Canadian subsidiary ("Cash Money"), maintains a C $10.0 million revolving credit facility with Royal Bank of Canada (the "Cash Money Revolving Credit Facility"), which provides short-term liquidity required to meet the working capital needs of the Company's Canadian operations. Aggregate draws under the revolving credit facility are limited to the lesser of: (i) the borrowing base, which is defined as a percentage of cash, deposits in transit and accounts receivable, and (ii) C $10.0 million . As of September 30, 2019 , the borrowing capacity under the Cash Money Revolving Credit Facility, which was C$9.7 million , net of C $0.3 million in outstanding stand-by-letters of credit. The Cash Money Revolving Credit Facility is collateralized by substantially all of Cash Money’s assets and contains various covenants that require, among other things, that the aggregate borrowings outstanding under the facility not exceed the borrowing base, as well as restrictions on the encumbrance of assets and the creation of indebtedness. Borrowings under the Cash Money Revolving Credit Facility bear interest per annum at the prime rate of a Canadian chartered bank plus 1.95% . The Cash Money Revolving Credit Facility was undrawn at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Subordinated Stockholder Debt As part of the acquisition of Cash Money in 2011, the Company received indemnification for certain claims through issuance of an escrow note to the seller, bearing interest at 10.0% per annum with quarterly interest payments. This note matured and was paid during the second quarter of 2019. Non-Recourse U.S. SPV Facility In November 2016, CURO Receivables Finance I, LLC and a wholly-owned subsidiary entered into a five -year revolving credit facility with Victory Park Management, LLC and certain other lenders that provided for an $80.0 million term loan and $70.0 million revolving borrowing capacity that could expand over time (collectively, “Non-Recourse U.S. SPV Facility”). Borrowings under this facility bore interest at an annual rate of up to 12.00% plus the greater of (i) 1.0% per annum and (ii) the three-month LIBOR. The SPV Borrower also paid a 0.50% per annum fee on the unused portion of the commitments. In connection with this facility, the capitalized financing costs at the time of extinguishment, as discussed below, were $5.3 million , net of amortization. These capitalized financing costs were included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as a component of "Debt" and were amortized over the term of the Non-Recourse U.S. SPV Facility. On September 30, 2018, a portion of the proceeds from the 8.25% Senior Secured Notes were used to extinguish the revolver's balance of $42.4 million . In October 2018, the Company extinguished the remaining term loan balance of $80.0 million and made the final termination payment of $2.7 million , resulting in a loss on the extinguishment of debt of $9.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2018.

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]
SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION	SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION The Company's stockholder-approved 2017 Incentive Plan provides for the issuance of up to 5.0 million shares, subject to certain adjustment provisions, which may be issued in the form of stock options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), stock appreciation rights, performance awards and other awards that may be settled in or based on common stock. Awards may be granted to officers, employees, consultants and directors. The 2017 Incentive Plan provides that shares of common stock subject to awards granted become available for re-issuance if such awards expire, terminate, are canceled for any reason or are forfeited by the recipient. Restricted Stock Units Grants of time-based RSUs are valued at the date of grant based on the value of common stock and are expensed using the straight-line method over the service period. These RSUs are subject to time-based vesting and typically vest over a three -year period. Grants of market-based RSUs are valued using the Monte Carlo simulation pricing model. In March 2019, the Company awarded market-based RSUs designed to drive the performance of the management team toward achievement of key corporate objectives. The market-based RSUs vest after three years depending upon the Company's total stockholder return over the three -year performance period relative to other companies in its selected peer group. Expense recognition for the market-based awards occurs over the service period using the straight-line method. Grants of RSUs do not confer full stockholder rights such as voting rights and cash dividends, but provide for additional dividend equivalent RSU awards in lieu of cash dividends. Unvested shares of RSUs may be forfeited upon termination of employment depending on the circumstances of the termination, or failure to achieve the required performance condition, if applicable. A summary of the status of time-based and market-based RSUs as of September 30, 2019 and changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 are presented in the following table: Number of RSUs Time-Based Market-Based Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value per Share December 31, 2018 1,060,350 — $ 14.29 Granted 598,114 397,752 10.08 Vested (83,481 ) — 15.59 Forfeited (68,778 ) — 14.05 September 30, 2019 1,506,205 397,752 $ 12.04 Share-based compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 , which includes compensation costs from stock options and RSUs, was $2.8 million and $2.1 million , respectively, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was $7.6 million and $6.1 million , respectively, and is included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of "Corporate, district and other expenses." As of September 30, 2019 , there was $16.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options and RSUs, of which $12.9 million related to time-based RSUs and $2.8 million related to market-based RSUs. Total unrecognized compensation costs will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.7 years .

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	INCOME TAXES The Company's effective income tax rate was 27.9% and (34.8)% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. On December 22, 2017, the 2017 Tax Act became law, which reduced the statutory U.S. Federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, enacted a one-time “deemed repatriation” tax on unremitted earnings accumulated in non-U.S. jurisdictions and imposed a new minimum tax on global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI"). The Company provided an estimate of the deemed repatriation tax as of December 31, 2017, and pursuant to further IRS guidance, the Company recorded an additional accrual of $1.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The Company recorded an estimated GILTI tax of $0.5 million and $0.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. The Company intends to reinvest Canada earnings indefinitely in its Canadian operations and therefore has not provided for any non-U.S. withholding tax that would be assessed on dividend distributions. If the earnings of $153.6 million were distributed to the U.S., the Company would be subject to Canadian withholding taxes of an estimated $7.7 million . In the event the earnings were distributed to the U.S., the Company would adjust the income tax provision for the applicable period and would determine the amount of foreign tax credit that would be available.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The Company is required to use valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, income approach and/or cost approach. Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on observable market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the Company's own estimate about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. Accounting standards establish a three-level fair value hierarchy based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price assets or liabilities. The hierarchy requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are listed below. Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has access to at the measurement date. Level 2 – Inputs include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs). Level 3 – Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company's own judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability since limited market data exists. The Company develops these inputs based on the best information available, including its own data. Financial Assets and Liabilities Carried at Fair Value The table below presents the assets and liabilities that were carried at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at September 30, 2019 (in thousands): Estimated Fair Value Carrying Value September 30, Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Financial assets: Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance $ 5,799 $ 5,799 $ — $ — $ 5,799 Financial liabilities: Non-qualified deferred compensation plan $ 4,333 $ 4,333 $ — $ — $ 4,333 The table below presents the assets and liabilities that were carried at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2018 (in thousands): Estimated Fair Value Carrying Value December 31, Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Financial assets: (1) Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance $ 4,790 $ 4,790 $ — $ — $ 4,790 Financial liabilities: Non-qualified deferred compensation plan $ 3,639 $ 3,639 $ — $ — $ 3,639 (1) Zibby was not included as of 12/31/18 as it was accounted for under the cost method.

The unobservable inputs used to calculate the carrying values include quantitative factors, such as default trends. Also considered in evaluating the accuracy of the models are changes to the loan portfolio mix, the impact of new loan products, changes to underwriting criteria or lending policies, new store development or entrance into new markets, changes in jurisdictional regulations or laws, recent credit trends and general economic conditions. The carrying value of loans receivable approximates their fair value. In connection with CSO programs, the Company guarantees consumer loan payment obligations to unrelated third-party lenders for loans that the Company arranges for consumers on the third-party lenders’ behalf. The Company is required to purchase from the lender defaulted loans that it has guaranteed. During the second and third quarters of 2019, Zibby completed an equity raising round through which the Company increased its investment in Zibby to 42.3% , on a fully diluted basis, resulting in the accounting of the investment under the equity method as of September 30, 2019 . This round included additional investments from existing shareholders and by new investors. As a result of the additional investment, the Company recognized a $3.7 million loss to adjust the Company's carrying value of Zibby. The carrying value was further adjusted by the Company's pro rata share of Zibby's losses during the period in which the Company held a greater than 20% investment, typically considered the threshold for equity method accounting. During the three months ended September 30, 2019 , this carrying value adjustment was $1.4 million . The 8.25% Senior Secured Notes fair value disclosure was transferred from Level 3, as previously reported, to Level 2 for September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. Upon management's review of the inputs, the Level 2 disclosure is appropriate given the limited trading activity in this public (observable) market. The fair values of the Non-Recourse Canada SPV facility and the Senior Revolver were based on the cash needed for their respective final settlements.

The underwriters exercised this option and purchased 1.0 million shares on January 5, 2018. The exercise of this option provided additional proceeds of $13.1 million.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
EARNINGS PER SHARE	EARNINGS PER SHARE The following table presents the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands, except per share amounts): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended 2019 2018 (1) 2019 2018 Net income (loss) from continuing operations $ 27,987 $ (42,590 ) $ 74,327 $ 1,041 Net (loss) income from discontinued operations, net of tax (598 ) (4,432 ) $ 6,943 $ (8,796 ) Net income (loss) $ 27,389 $ (47,022 ) $ 81,270 $ (7,755 ) Weighted average common shares - basic 44,422 45,853 45,759 45,674 Dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock units 1,588 — 1,128 2,387 Weighted average common shares - diluted 46,010 45,853 46,887 48,061 Basic earnings (loss) per share: Continuing operations $ 0.63 $ (0.93 ) $ 1.63 $ 0.02 Discontinued operations (0.01 ) (0.10 ) 0.15 (0.19 ) Basic earnings per share $ 0.62 $ (1.03 ) $ 1.78 $ (0.17 ) Diluted earnings (loss) per share: Continuing operations $ 0.61 $ (0.93 ) $ 1.59 $ 0.03 Discontinued operations (0.01 ) (0.10 ) 0.15 (0.19 ) Diluted earnings per share $ 0.60 $ (1.03 ) $ 1.74 $ (0.16 ) (1) As of December 31, 2018, the Company made certain insignificant adjustments to previously-reported Earnings Per Share ("EPS") to correctly reflect the effect of anti-dilutive shares on diluted EPS calculations in accordance with ASC 260. These changes were immaterial to the overall EPS calculation. Diluted loss per share for the three months ended September 30, 2018 of $0.97 was corrected to $1.03. Potential shares of common stock that would have the effect of increasing diluted earnings per share or decreasing diluted loss per share are considered to be anti-dilutive and as such, these shares are not included in calculating "Diluted earnings per share." For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 , there were 0.1 million and 0.3 million , respectively, of potential shares of common stock excluded from the calculation of Diluted earnings per share because their effect was anti-dilutive. For the three months ended September 30, 2018, there were 2.5 million potential shares of common stock excluded from the calculation of Diluted earnings per share because their effect was anti-dilutive. There was no effect for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 . The Company utilizes the "control number" concept in the computation of Diluted earnings per share to determine whether potential common stock instruments are dilutive. The control number used is income from continuing operations. The control number concept requires that the same number of potentially dilutive securities applied in computing Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations be applied to all other categories of income or loss, regardless of their anti-dilutive effect on such categories.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
SEGMENT REPORTING	SEGMENT REPORTING Segment information is prepared on the same basis that the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") reviews financial information for operational decision making purposes. During the first quarter of 2019, the U.K. Subsidiaries met discontinued operations criteria, resulting in two remaining reportable operating segments: the U.S. and Canada. Management’s evaluation of performance utilizes gross margin and operating profit before the allocation of interest expense and professional services. The following reporting segment results reflect this basis for evaluation and were determined in accordance with the same accounting principles used in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The following table illustrates summarized financial information concerning reportable segments (in thousands): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended 2019 2018 2019 2018 Revenues by segment: U.S. $ 237,069 $ 223,273 $ 673,234 $ 617,992 Canada 60,195 46,209 166,269 139,502 Consolidated revenue $ 297,264 $ 269,482 $ 839,503 $ 757,494 Gross margin by segment: U.S. $ 77,250 $ 60,105 $ 232,120 $ 215,497 Canada 19,389 489 51,197 28,291 Consolidated gross margin $ 96,639 $ 60,594 $ 283,317 $ 243,788 Segment operating income (loss): U.S. $ 28,092 $ (53,624 ) $ 76,316 $ (11,430 ) Canada 11,134 (5,880 ) 26,749 12,202 Consolidated operating profit $ 39,226 $ (59,504 ) $ 103,065 $ 772 Expenditures for long-lived assets by segment: U.S. $ 2,890 $ 4,483 $ 7,888 $ 6,466 Canada 216 590 1,382 1,564 Consolidated expenditures for long-lived assets $ 3,106 $ 5,073 $ 9,270 $ 8,030 The following table provides gross loans receivable by segment (in thousands): September 30, December 31, U.S. $ 370,967 $ 361,473 Canada 286,648 210,058 Total gross loans receivable $ 657,615 $ 571,531 The following table provides net long-lived assets, comprised of property and equipment, by segment.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
CONTINGENT LIABILITIES	CONTINGENT LIABILITIES Securities Litigation On December 5, 2018, a putative securities fraud class action lawsuit was filed against the Company and its chief executive officer, chief financial officer and chief operating officer in the United States District Court for the District of Kansas, captioned Yellowdog Partners, LP v. CURO Group Holdings Corp., Donald F. Gayhardt, William Baker and Roger W. Dean , Civil Action No. 18-2662. On May 31, 2019, plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint naming Doug Rippel, Chad Faulkner, Mike McKnight, Friedman Fleischer & Lowe Capital Partners II, L.P., FFL Executive Partners II, L.P., and FFL Parallel Fund II, L.P. as additional defendants. The complaint alleges that the Company and the individual defendants violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and that certain defendants also violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act as "control persons" of CURO. Plaintiffs purport to bring these claims on behalf of a class of investors who purchased Company common stock between April 27, 2018 and October 24, 2018. Plaintiffs allege generally that, during the putative class period, the Company made misleading statements and omitted material information regarding its efforts to transition the Canadian inventory of products from Single-Pay loans to Open-End loans. Plaintiffs assert that the Company and the individual defendants made these misstatements and omissions to keep the stock price high. Plaintiffs seek unspecified damages and other relief. The Company filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit on August 15, 2019. While the Company is vigorously contesting this lawsuit, it cannot determine the final resolution or when it might be resolved. In addition to the expenses incurred in defending this litigation and any damages that may be awarded in the event of an adverse ruling, management’s efforts and attention may be diverted from the ordinary business operations to address these claims. Regardless of the outcome, this litigation may have a material adverse impact on results because of defense costs, including costs related to indemnification obligations, diversion of resources and other factors. During the first quarter of 2019, the Company received an inquiry from the SEC regarding the Company's public disclosures surrounding its efforts to transition the Canadian inventory of products from Single-Pay loans to Open-End loans. City of Austin The Company was cited in July 2016 by the City of Austin, Texas for alleged violations of the Austin ordinance addressing products offered by CSOs. The Austin ordinance regulates aspects of products offered under the Company's credit access bureau ("CAB") program, including loan sizes and repayment terms. The Company believes that: (i) the Austin ordinance (similar to its counterparts elsewhere in Texas) conflicts with Texas state law and (ii) in any event, the Company's product complies with the ordinance, when the ordinance is properly construed. The Austin Municipal Court agreed with the Company's position that the ordinance conflicts with Texas law and, accordingly, did not address the second argument. In September 2017, the Travis County Court reversed the Municipal Court’s decision and remanded the case for further proceedings. To date, a hearing and trial on the merits have not been scheduled. The Company does not anticipate having a final determination of the lawfulness of its CAB program under the Austin ordinance (and similar ordinances in other Texas cities) in the near future. A final adverse decision could potentially result in material monetary liability in Austin and elsewhere in Texas, and would force the Company to restructure the loans it originates in Austin and elsewhere in Texas. Other Legal Matters The Company is a defendant in certain litigation matters encountered in the ordinary course of business. Certain of these matters may be covered to an extent by insurance. In the opinion of management, based upon the advice of legal counsel, the likelihood is remote that the impact of any of these pending litigation matters, either individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

LEASES

LEASES	9 Months Ended

Leases [Abstract]
Leases	LEASES The Company entered into operating leases for the buildings in which it operates that expire at various times through 2033. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in "Right of use asset - operating leases" and "Lease liability - operating leases" in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate of return, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is determined using a portfolio approach based on the rate of interest the Company would pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term. The Company uses quoted interest rates obtained from financial institutions as an input, adjusted for Company specific factors, to derive the incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for the lease. The majority of the leases have an original term of five years with two five -year renewal options. For purposes of calculating operating lease liabilities, lease terms may be deemed to include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Most of the leases have escalation clauses and certain leases also require payment of period costs, including maintenance, insurance and property taxes. Some of the leases are with related parties and have terms similar to the non-related party leases. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The following table summarizes the operating lease costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 (in thousands): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended 2019 2019 Operating lease costs: Third-Party $ 7,687 $ 23,000 Related-Party 865 2,595 Total $ 8,552 $ 25,595 During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 , cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of the liabilities and the operating cash flows were $26.0 million . ROU assets obtained in exchange for lease liabilities were $11.1 million . The following table summarizes the aggregate operating lease maturities that the Company is contractually obligated to make under operating leases as of September 30, 2019 (in thousands): Third-Party Related-Party Total Remainder of 2019 $ 7,698 $ 922 $ 8,620 2020 29,596 3,752 33,348 2021 26,450 3,772 30,222 2022 23,387 3,669 27,056 2023 18,674 1,313 19,987 2024 14,088 963 15,051 Thereafter 35,697 3,414 39,111 Total 155,590 17,805 173,395 Less: Imputed interest (42,920 ) (4,427 ) (47,347 ) Operating lease liabilities $ 112,670 $ 13,378 $ 126,048 In accordance with the prior guidance, ASC 840, Leases , the future minimum lease payments by fiscal year as determined prior to the adoption of ASC 842, Leases , as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 , were as follows (in thousands): Third Party Related Party Total 2019 $ 24,211 $ 3,330 $ 27,541 2020 20,547 3,285 23,832 2021 17,301 3,324 20,625 2022 14,558 3,322 17,880 2023 10,269 705 10,974 Thereafter 13,446 730 14,176 Total (1) $ 100,332 $ 14,696 $ 115,028 (1) Future minimum lease payments exclude the U.K. as all U.K. subsidiaries were placed into administration effective February 25, 2019. As of September 30, 2019 , the weighted average remaining lease term was 6.3 years , and the weighted average operating discount rate used to determine the operating lease liability remained 10.3% .

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract]
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS	DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS On February 25, 2019, in accordance with the provisions of the U.K. Insolvency Act 1986 and as approved by the boards of directors of the U.K. Subsidiaries, insolvency practitioners from KPMG were appointed as Administrators for the U.K. Subsidiaries. The effect of the U.K. Subsidiaries’ entry into administration was to place their management, affairs, business and property of the U.K. Subsidiaries under the direct control of the Administrators. Accordingly, the Company deconsolidated the U.K. Subsidiaries, which comprised the U.K. reportable operating segment, as of February 25, 2019 and classified them as Discontinued Operations for all periods presented. Revenue and expenses related to discontinued operations included activity prior to the deconsolidation of the U.K. Subsidiaries effective February 25, 2019. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 , "Loss on disposition" of $39.4 million included the non-cash effect of eliminating assets and liabilities of the U.K. Subsidiaries as of the date of deconsolidation, as well as the effect of cumulative currency exchange rate differences on the U.S. investment in the U.K. In connection with the disposition of the U.K. Subsidiaries, the U.S. entity that owned the Company's interests in the U.K. Subsidiaries recognized a loss on investment. This loss resulted in an estimated U.S. federal and state income tax benefit of $46.0 million , which will be available to offset the Company's future U.S. federal and state income tax obligations. During the three months ended September 30, 2019 , the Company revised the estimate of the tax basis in the U.K. Subsidiaries, resulting in a $0.6 million reduction in the income tax benefit initially recorded in the first quarter of 2019. The following table presents financial results of the U.K. Subsidiaries, which meet the criteria of Discontinued Operations and, therefore, are excluded from the Company's results of continuing operations (in thousands): Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 2019 2018 2019 (1) 2018 Revenue $ — $ 13,522 $ 6,957 $ 36,251 Provision for losses — 6,831 1,703 16,618 Net revenue — 6,691 5,254 19,633 Cost of providing services Office — 416 246 1,490 Other costs of providing services — 120 61 1,213 Advertising — 2,765 775 7,077 Total cost of providing services — 3,301 1,082 9,780 Gross margin — 3,390 4,172 9,853 Operating expense (income) Corporate, district and other expenses — 7,690 3,810 18,390 Interest income — (7 ) (4 ) (19 ) Loss on disposition — — 39,414 — Total operating expense — 7,683 43,220 18,371 Pre-tax loss from operations of discontinued operations — (4,293 ) (39,048 ) (8,518 ) Income tax expense (benefit) related to disposition 598 139 (45,991 ) 278 Net (loss) income from discontinued operations $ (598 ) $ (4,432 ) $ 6,943 $ (8,796 ) (1) Includes U.K. Subsidiaries financial results from January 1, 2019 to February 25, 2019.

Equity [Abstract]
SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM	SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM In April 2019, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program providing for the repurchase of up to $50.0 million of its common stock. The repurchase program, which commenced June 2019, will continue until completed or terminated. CURO expects the purchases to be made from time-to-time in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or both, at the Company's discretion and subject to market conditions and other factors.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS (Policies)	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2019
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The terms “CURO" and the “Company” refer to CURO Group Holdings Corp. and its directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries as a consolidated entity, except where otherwise stated. The term "CFTC" refers to CURO Financial Technologies Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and its directly and indirectly owned subsidiaries as a consolidated entity, except where otherwise stated. The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements ("Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements") in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), and with the accounting policies described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 18, 2019 ("2018 Form 10-K"). Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for any other interim period or the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to enable a reasonable understanding of the information presented. Additionally, in September 2018, and subsequently expanded in June 2019, the SEC changed the definition of a smaller reporting company ("SRC"). The change in definition of an SRC allows more registrants to qualify to report under scaled disclosure requirements. Under these rules, CURO met the definition of an SRC as of June 30, 2019. Refer to "--FASB Definition of an SRC as related to the CECL standard and evaluation of the impact of the CECL standard" for information regarding the impact on the Company of meeting the definition of an SRC. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes reflect all adjustments (consisting only of adjustments of a normal and recurring nature) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the Company's results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the periods presented. On February 25, 2019, the Company's United Kingdom ("U.K.") segment, as defined by ASC 280, was placed into administration, resulting in the treatment of it as discontinued operations per ASC 205-20. Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ("Form 10-Q"), current and prior-period financial information presents the U.K. segment as discontinued operations as required. For further information about the placement of the segment into administration, refer to "--Nature of Operations" below. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes included in the 2018 Form 10-K. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for future interim periods or for the year ending December 31, 2019 .
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of CURO and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Estimates also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Some of the significant estimates that the Company made in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include allowances for loan losses, certain assumptions related to equity investments, goodwill and intangibles, accruals related to self-insurance, credit services organization ("CSO") liability for losses, and estimated tax liabilities. Actual results may differ from those estimates
U.K. Segment Placed into Administration	U.K. Segment Placed into Administration On February 25, 2019, the Company announced that a proposed Scheme of Arrangement ("SOA"), as described in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed January 31, 2019, would not be implemented. In accordance with the provisions of the U.K. Insolvency Act 1986 and as approved by the boards of directors of the Company’s U.K. subsidiaries, Curo Transatlantic Limited and SRC Transatlantic Limited (collectively, “the U.K. Subsidiaries”), insolvency practitioners from KPMG were appointed as administrators (“Administrators”) for the U.K. Subsidiaries. The effect of the U.K. Subsidiaries’ entry into administration was to place their management, affairs, business and property under the direct control of the Administrators. Accordingly, the Company deconsolidated the U.K. Subsidiaries as of February 25, 2019 and presented the U.K. Subsidiaries as Discontinued Operations for all periods presented in this Form 10-Q.
Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted	Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements ASU 2016-02 In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") established Topic 842, Leases , by issuing ASU No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize leases on the balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2019 using the alternative modified retrospective method, also known as the transition relief method, permitted under ASU 2018-11, which allows companies to not recast comparative periods in the period of adoption. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance which, among other things, permits companies to not reassess prior conclusions on lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company also elected to combine lease and non-lease components and to exclude short-term leases, defined as having an initial term of 12 months or less, from the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company did not elect the hindsight practical expedient. As of September 30, 2019, the Company held right of use assets ("ROU assets") and operating lease liabilities ("lease liabilities") of $118.3 million and $126.0 million , respectively. Prepaid rent of $2.7 million and deferred liabilities of $10.9 million were included in ROU assets and lease liabilities, respectively, at the time of adoption. During the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company reduced initial opening balances for ROU assets and lease liabilities recorded on January 1, 2019 by $18.0 million as a result of a previous misapplication of certain provisions of Topic 842. The impact of this misapplication on the Company's financial position, results of operations, and cash flows was not material. See Note 14 - "Leases" for additional information and disclosures required by Topic 842. ASU 2018-02 In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive income ("ASU 2018-02"), which permits the reclassification to retained earnings of disproportionate tax effects in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) caused by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 ("2017 Tax Act"). The Company adopted ASU 2018-02 as of January 1, 2019, which did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Related to the Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") Standard ASU 2016-13 In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” and subsequent amendments to the guidance: ASU 2018-19 in November 2018, ASU 2019-04 in April 2019 and ASU 2019-05 in May 2019. The standard, as amended, changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The standard will replace the current “incurred loss” approach with an “expected loss” model for instruments measured at amortized cost. For available-for-sale debt securities, entities will be required to record allowances rather than reduce the carrying amount, as they currently do under the other-than-temporary impairment model. The standard also simplifies the accounting model for purchased credit-impaired debt securities and loans. The amendment will affect loans, debt securities, trade receivables, net investments in leases, off-balance sheet credit exposures, reinsurance receivables, and any other financial assets not excluded from the scope that have the contractual right to receive cash. ASU 2019-04 clarifies that equity instruments without readily determinable fair values for which an entity has elected the measurement alternative should be remeasured to fair value as of the date that an observable transaction occurred. ASU 2019-05 provides an option to irrevocably elect to measure certain individual financial assets at fair value instead of amortized cost. The amendments should be applied on either a prospective transition or modified-retrospective approach depending on the subtopic. As issued, ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein. The Company is evaluating its alternatives with respect to the available accounting methods under ASU 2016‑13, including the fair value option. If the fair value option is not utilized, adoption of ASU 2016-13 will increase the allowance for credit losses with a resulting negative adjustment to retained earnings on the date of adoption. Additionally, as disclosed below in "--FASB Definition of an SRC as related to the CECL standard and evaluation of the impact of the CECL standard", the Company expects to defer the adoption of ASU 2016-13 until at least January 1, 2021. ASU 2019-05 In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) , which amends ASU 2016-13 to allow companies to irrevocably elect, upon adoption of ASU 2016-13, the fair value option on financial instruments that (i) were previously recorded at amortized cost and (ii) are within the scope of ASC 326-20 if the instruments are eligible for the fair value option under ASC 825-10. The fair value option election does not apply to held-to-maturity debt securities. Entities are required to make this election on an instrument-by-instrument basis. ASU 2019-05’s amendments should be applied on a modified-retrospective basis by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the statement of financial position as of the date that an entity adopted the amendments in ASU 2016-13. For entities that have adopted ASU 2016-13, the amendments in ASU 2019-05 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods therein. An entity may early adopt the ASU in any interim period after its issuance if the entity has adopted ASU 2016-13. For all other entities, the effective date will be the same as the effective date for ASU 2016-13. The Company expects to elect the option to defer adoption to a later effective date, as further described below in "--FASB Definition of an SRC as related to the CECL standard and evaluation of the impact of the CECL standard ." The Company is currently evaluating the methods and impact of adopting this new standard on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. ASU 2019-04 In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses , Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, which clarifies certain aspects of accounting for credit losses, hedging activities, and financial instruments. The ASU’s amendments apply to all entities within the scope of the affected guidance. Accrued interest - Amortized cost basis is defined in ASU 2016-13 as "the amount at which a financing receivable or investment is originated or acquired, adjusted for applicable accrued interest, accretion or amortization of premium, discount, and net deferred fees or costs, collection of cash, write-offs, foreign exchange, and fair value hedge accounting adjustments." To address stakeholders’ concerns that the inclusion of accrued interest in the definition of amortized cost basis could make application of the credit loss guidance operationally burdensome, ASU 2019-04 provides certain alternatives for the measurement of the allowance for credit losses ("ALL") on accrued interest receivable ("AIR"). These measurement alternatives include (i) measuring an ALL on AIR separately, (ii) electing to provide separate disclosure of the AIR component of amortized cost as a practical expedient, and (iii) making accounting policy elections to simplify certain aspects of the presentation and measurement of such AIR. As issued, for entities that have adopted ASU 2016-13, the amendments in ASU 2019-04 related to ASU 2016-13 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods therein. ASU 2019-04’s amendments should be applied "on a modified-retrospective basis by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance in the statement of financial position as of the date an entity adopted the amendments in ASU 2016-13." Certain disclosures are also required. Due to the FASB's decision to allow a deferment option for SRCs applying ASU 2016-13, the Company expects to defer adoption of both ASU 2016-13 and ASU 2019-04. FASB Definition of an SRC as related to the CECL standard and evaluation of the impact of the CECL standard On October 16, 2019, the FASB approved a proposal to defer required adoption of the CECL standard for SRCs until fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Under current SEC definitions, CURO met the definition of an SRC as of June 30, 2019. The FASB further confirmed that for CECL, a company makes an evaluation of SRC status in accordance with SEC rules at the time of standard effectiveness (i.e., as of June 30, 2019) and that status is effective for purposes of adopting the CECL standard regardless of future changes in SRC status. The FASB is expected to codify the approved proposal with issuance of a new ASU during the fourth quarter of 2019. The Company will continue to monitor the standard-setting activities of the FASB and expects to elect to defer adoption of the CECL standard. The Company is currently evaluating the methods and impact of adopting the CECL standard on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. SEC Disclosure Update In August 2018, the SEC adopted final rules under SEC Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification , amending certain disclosure requirements that had become redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated or superseded. Other than the amendment's expanded disclosure requirement for interim financial statements to disclose both current and comparative quarter and year-to-date reconciliations of changes in stockholders' equity, it did not have a material impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements or Notes thereto for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 , nor is it expected to have a material impact on the Company's annual Consolidated Financial Statements or Notes thereto.
Variable Interest Entity	As the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIEs, it includes the assets and liabilities related to the VIEs in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. As required, the Company parenthetically discloses on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets the VIEs’ assets that can only be used to settle the VIEs' obligations and liabilities if the VIEs’ creditors have no recourse against the Company's general credit.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The Company is required to use valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, income approach and/or cost approach. Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on observable market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the Company's own estimate about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. Accounting standards establish a three-level fair value hierarchy based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price assets or liabilities. The hierarchy requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are listed below. Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has access to at the measurement date. Level 2 – Inputs include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs). Level 3 – Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company's own judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability since limited market data exists. The Company develops these inputs based on the best information available, including its own data.
