Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Coupang, Inc. (“Coupang”) together with its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us,” or “our”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We based our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. The unaudited interim financial information reflects all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim period. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our 2023 Form 10-K. Farfetch Acquisition In January 2024, we acquired the business and assets of Farfetch Holdings plc (“Farfetch”), a leading global marketplace for the luxury fashion industry (the “Farfetch Acquisition”). Refer to “Note 11 - Business Combinations – Farfetch” for additional information. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-04, “Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50) - Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations.” The standard requires entities that use supplier finance programs to make disclosures about the key terms of the program, the balance sheet presentation of the related amounts and disclose the amounts outstanding, including providing a rollforward of such amounts. The adoption of the ASU resulted in incremental disclosures in our condensed consolidated financial statements, with the exception of the rollforward disclosure which will be effective prospectively for the year ended December 31, 2024. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Yet To Be Adopted In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” The standard requires additional disclosures about an entities segments, primarily about significant segment expenses that are reported to the Chief Operating Decision Maker. Early adoption is allowed under the standard. We are evaluating the effect of adopting the ASU on our disclosures, which is effective beginning with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, and interim reporting beginning with the period ended March 31, 2025. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” The standard requires disclosure of specific categories of an entities income tax expenses and income taxes paid among other disclosures. Early adoption is allowed under the standard. We are evaluating the effect of adopting the ASU on our disclosures, which is effective beginning with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

Net retail sales are recognized from owned inventory product sales to consumers. Third- party merchant services represent commissions, advertising, and delivery fees earned from merchants and restaurants that sell their products through our online businesses. Other revenue includes revenue earned from our Rocket WOW membership program and various other offerings. Contract liabilities consist of payments in advance of delivery and customer loyalty credits, which are included in deferred revenue on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. We recognized revenue of $92 million and $90 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, primarily related to payments in advance of products and services delivered which were included in deferred revenue on the consolidated balance sheets as of the beginning of the respective years.

Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segment Reporting	Segment Reporting We own and operate a retail business that primarily serves the Korean retail market along with other international markets. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is our Chief Executive Officer. We have two operating and reportable segments: Product Commerce and Developing Offerings. These segments are based on how the CODM manages the business, allocates resources, makes operating decisions and evaluates operating performance. Product Commerce primarily includes core Korean retail (owned inventory) and marketplace offerings (third-party merchants) and Rocket Fresh, our fresh grocery category offering, as well as advertising products associated with these offerings. Revenues from Product Commerce are derived primarily from online product sales of owned inventory to customers in Korea, commissions, and logistics and fulfillment fees earned from merchants that sell products through our mobile application and website, and from Rocket WOW membership. Developing Offerings includes our more nascent offerings and services, including Coupang Eats, our restaurant ordering and delivery service in Korea, Coupang Play, our online content streaming service in Korea, fintech, our retail operations in Taiwan, as well as advertising products associated with these offerings and also includes Farfetch, our newly acquired global luxury fashion marketplace. Revenues from Developing Offerings are primarily generated from our luxury fashion marketplace through Farfetch, our online restaurant ordering and delivery services in Korea and retail operations in Taiwan. Our segment operating performance measure is segment adjusted EBITDA. Segment adjusted EBITDA is defined as income (loss) before income taxes for a period before depreciation and amortization, equity-based compensation expense, interest expense, interest income, and other income (expense), net. Segment adjusted EBITDA also excludes impairments and other items that we do not believe are reflective of our ongoing operations. We generally allocate operating expenses to the respective segments based on usage. The CODM does not evaluate segments using asset information and, accordingly, we do not report asset information by segment. Results of operations for the reportable segments and reconciliation to income before income taxes is as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (in millions) 2024 2023 2024 2023 Net revenues Product Commerce $ 6,431 $ 5,682 $ 12,925 $ 11,340 Developing Offerings 892 156 1,512 298 Total net revenues $ 7,323 $ 5,838 $ 14,437 $ 11,638 Segment adjusted EBITDA Product Commerce $ 530 $ 408 $ 997 $ 696 Developing Offerings (200) (107) (386) (155) Total segment adjusted EBITDA $ 330 $ 300 $ 611 $ 541 Reconciling items: Depreciation and amortization $ (106) $ (66) $ (201) $ (130) Equity-based compensation (109) (86) (197) (156) Acquisition and restructuring related costs (19) — (77) — Estimated KFTC administrative fine (see Note 10) (121) — (121) — Interest expense (37) (13) (64) (21) Interest income 53 42 108 73 Other income (expense), net 12 (6) 3 (11) Income before income taxes $ 3 $ 171 $ 62 $ 295 Note: Amounts may not foot due to rounding.

Income Taxes

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes Our tax provision from income taxes for interim periods is determined using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter we update our estimate of the annual effective tax rate, and if our estimated tax rate changes, we make a cumulative adjustment. No income tax benefit was accrued for jurisdictions where we anticipate incurring a loss during the full fiscal year as the related deferred tax assets were fully offset by a valuation allowance. Our resulting effective tax rate differs from the applicable statutory rate, primarily due to tax credits, the inclusion of the global intangible low-taxed income (GILTI) provisions, the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets in loss making jurisdictions, and other permanent differences. The increase in our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 is primarily due to the loss before income taxes incurred by Farfetch, with no offsetting tax benefit, the impact of the non-deductible estimated KFTC administrative fine (the “administrative fine”) discussed in “Note 10 - Commitments and Contingencies”, and the prospective impact of releasing the valuation allowance on our Korean deferred tax assets in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings per Share	Earnings per Share Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to Coupang stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net (loss) income attributable to Coupang stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive common stock outstanding during the period. We have two classes of common stock outstanding, Class A common stock and Class B common stock (collectively “common stock”), with equal rights to dividends and income. Earnings per share attributable to Coupang stockholders are therefore the same for Class A and Class B common stock, both on an individual and combined basis. The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share attributable to Coupang stockholders: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (in millions, except per share amounts) 2024 2023 2024 2023 Numerator: Net (loss) income attributable to Coupang stockholders $ (77) $ 145 $ (72) $ 236 Denominator: Weighted-average shares used in computing net (loss) income per share attributable to Class A and Class B common stockholders: Basic 1,789 1,780 1,791 1,777 Dilutive effect of equity compensation awards — 21 — 20 Diluted 1,789 1,800 1,791 1,797 Earnings per share: Basic $ (0.04) $ 0.08 $ (0.04) $ 0.13 Diluted $ (0.04) $ 0.08 $ (0.04) $ 0.13 Anti-dilutive shares 34 4 28 5 Note: Amounts may not foot due to rounding.

Participating vendors and suppliers may, at their sole discretion, settle obligations prior to their scheduled due dates at a discounted price to the participating financial institutions. The invoices that have been confirmed as valid under the program require payment, in full, based on the original standard invoice terms. Confirmed invoices owed to financial institutions under these programs are included within accounts payable Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income Accumulated other comprehensive loss includes all changes in equity during a period that have yet to be recognized in income. The major components are foreign currency translation adjustments and actuarial gains (losses) on our defined severance benefits. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the ending balance in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income related to foreign currency translation adjustments was $(140) million and $44 million, respectively, and the amount related to actuarial losses on defined severance benefits was $(58) million and $(61) million, respectively. Share Repurchase In April 2024, we repurchased 10 million shares of our Class A common stock for $178 million in a private transaction.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Short-term Borrowings and Long-term Debt	Short-term Borrowings and Long-term Debt Revolving Credit Facility In January 2024, our senior unsecured credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) was amended to extend the maturity date to February 2026 and to bring the aggregate principal amount to $875 million. The Revolving Credit Facility continues to provide us the right to request incremental commitments up to $1.25 billion, subject to customary conditions. The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including certain financial covenants. The Revolving Credit Facility is guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all our material restricted subsidiaries, subject to customary exceptions. Farfetch Term Loan As part of the Farfetch Acquisition, our subsidiary assumed the then outstanding syndicated Term Loans (“Farfetch Term Loans”) under Farfetch’s existing Credit Agreement with certain banks and financial institutions of $575 million, inclusive of fees incurred and less $58 million we repurchased upon acquisition. Repayment of the Farfetch Term Loans is due in quarterly installments, of 0.25%, payable on the last business day of each fiscal quarter. The Farfetch Term Loans mature in October 2027, and early payment is permitted. The Term Loans bear interest at a rate equal to SOFR plus 6.25% per annum. As of June 30, 2024, $572 million was outstanding. The Farfetch Term Loans contain customary affirmative covenants as well as customary negative covenants, including, but not limited to, restrictions on certain entities within Farfetch’s ability to incur additional debt, make investments, make distributions, dispose of assets, or enter into certain types of related party transactions. The loans are secured against specified assets of the Farfetch group and guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of Farfetch. Our debt is recorded at amortized cost. The fair value is estimated using Level 2 inputs based on our current interest rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The carrying amount of debt approximates its fair value as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 due primarily to the interest rates approximating market interest rates. We were in compliance with the covenants for each of our borrowings and debt agreements as of June 30, 2024.

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies Commitments Unconditional purchase obligations include legally binding contracts with terms in excess of one year that are not reflected on the consolidated balance sheets. These contractual commitments primarily relate to technology related service contracts, fulfillment center construction contracts and software licenses. For contracts with variable terms, we do not estimate the total obligation beyond any minimum pricing as of the reporting date. Legal Matters From time to time, we may become party to litigation incidents and other legal proceedings, including regulatory proceedings, in the ordinary course of business. We assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes with respect to these matters and determines loss contingency assessments on a gross basis after assessing the probability of incurrence of a loss and whether a loss is reasonably estimable. In addition, we consider other relevant factors that could impact our ability to reasonably estimate a loss. A determination of the amount of reserves required, if any, for these contingencies is made after analyzing each matter. Our reserves may change in the future due to new developments or changes in strategy in handling these matters. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, we currently believe that the final outcome of currently pending legal matters will not have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources, and other factors. Litigation On August 26, 2022, a putative class action was filed on behalf of all purchasers of Coupang Class A common stock pursuant and/or traceable to Coupang’s registration statement issued in connection with our initial public offering. Choi v. Coupang, Inc. et al was brought against Coupang, Inc., and certain of its former and current directors, current officers, and certain underwriters of the offering. The action was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York alleging inaccurate and misleading or omitted statements of material fact in Coupang's Registration Statement in violation of Sections 11, 12, and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. The action was amended on May 22, 2023, and added allegations of securities fraud under Sections 10 and 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The action seeks unspecified compensatory damages, attorneys’ fees, and reasonable costs and expenses. Between August and December 2023, three separate stockholders’ derivative actions were filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against certain of Coupang’s former and current directors and current officers. Coupang was named as a nominal defendant in the actions. These derivative actions purport to assert claims on behalf of Coupang and make substantially similar factual allegations to Choi v. Coupang, Inc. et al , bringing claims for, among other things, breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, and violations of securities laws. The actions seek compensatory damages, governance reforms, and other relief. We believe all the aforementioned actions are without merit and intend to vigorously defend against the aforementioned actions. A reasonable estimate of the amount of any possible loss or range of loss cannot be made at this time. Accordingly, we can provide no assurance as to the scope and outcome of this matter and no assurance as to whether our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows will not be materially adversely affected. Korea Fair Trade Commission Investigations In June 2021, the Korea Fair Trade Commission (the “KFTC”) initiated an investigation into a potential violation of the Monopoly Regulation and Fair Trade Act, including alleged preferential treatments of private labelled products provided by our subsidiary, Coupang Private Label Brands. On June 12, 2024, the KFTC publicly announced that as a result of their investigation, our product search rankings violate Korean law; a regulatory finding subject to judicial review. The KFTC announced that it would impose an administrative fine on us and that it intends to direct us to take certain related corrective actions. We are waiting for the KFTC to issue its formal written decision and plan to appeal the KFTC’s decision with the Seoul High Court following the issuance of the KFTC’s formal written decision as we believe we have substantial defenses against the KFTC’s claims and we will defend against them. Payments of fines to the KFTC are not stayed during an appeal process. We accrued the estimated administrative fine in the second quarter of 2024, resulting in a charge, included within operating, general and administrative expenses, of approximately $121 million representing the administrative fine announced by the KFTC plus an estimate of additional fine amounts through June 2024. The KFTC is also investigating us on other matters related to the alleged violations of certain KFTC regulations. We are diligently cooperating with these investigations, and actively defending our practices as appropriate. Under Korean law, the issues addressed in the investigations can be resolved through civil, administrative, or criminal proceedings. The ultimate case resolution could include fines, orders to alter our processes or procedures, and criminal investigations or charges against individuals or us. We cannot reasonably estimate any penalties, loss or range of loss that may arise from these other KFTC Investigations, in excess of the amounts accrued. Accordingly, we can provide no assurance as to the scope and outcome of these other matters and no assurance as to whether our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows will not be materially adversely affected.

Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract]
Business Combinations - Farfetch	Business Combinations – Farfetch Farfetch Acquisition On January 30, 2024 we completed the acquisition of Farfetch. We believe the acquisition will allow us to expand into luxury retail. We have accounted for this acquisition as a business combination. Total purchase consideration consisted of amounts previously funded to Farfetch under a loan prior to acquisition (the “Bridge Loan”) and required partial repayment of the Farfetch Term Loans at the close of the transaction. (in millions) Estimated Fair Value Farfetch Term Loan repayment $ 58 Bridge Loan contribution 150 Total purchase consideration $ 208 Purchase Price Allocation We have estimated the preliminary fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on information currently available and will continue to adjust those estimates as additional information becomes available during the measurement period. The measurement period will end no later than one year from the acquisition date. The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of purchase consideration and the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date: (in millions) Estimated Fair Value Assets acquired Cash and cash equivalents $ 126 Accounts receivable, net 288 Inventories 310 Prepaids and other current assets 224 Property and equipment, net 95 Intangible assets 325 Operating lease right-of-use assets 209 Other non-current assets 227 Liabilities assumed Accounts payable (505) Other current liabilities (169) Long-term debt (557) Operating lease obligations (214) Other non-current liabilities (177) Net assets assumed 182 Noncontrolling interests (78) Goodwill on acquisition 104 Total consideration $ 208 The excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill which is not deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill represents the future economic benefits we expect to achieve as a result of the acquisition, including the workforce of the acquired business as well as future operational and logistical cost efficiencies expected to be achieved. Goodwill was recorded in our Developing Offerings segment. The identifiable intangible assets acquired were as follows: (in millions, except years) Weighted Average Useful Life Estimated Fair Value Brand trademarks 5 years $ 130 Customer relationships 5 years 34 Supplier relationships 15 years 61 Developed technology 3 years 38 Brand licenses 8 years 62 Total intangible assets $ 325 The results of Farfetch included in our consolidated statement of operations since the closing of the acquisition were as follows: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (in millions) 2024 Total net revenues $ 460 $ 748 Net loss $ (108) $ (230) Acquisition-related costs were recorded as operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and were not material. Supplemental Pro Forma Information (Unaudited) The following financial information presents our results as if the acquisition of Farfetch had occurred on January 1, 2023: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, (in millions) 2024 2023 2024 2023 Pro Forma Information Total net revenues $ 7,323 $ 6,409 $ 14,624 $ 12,767 Net (loss) income $ (108) $ 24 $ (228) $ 55 These pro forma results are based on estimates and assumptions, which we believe are reasonable. They are illustrative only and are not the results that would have been achieved had the acquisition actually occurred on January 1, 2023, nor are they indicative of future results. The pro forma results include adjustments related to the business combination, including amortization of acquired intangibles, stock-based compensation, lease expense, and income taxes.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Coupang, Inc. (“Coupang”) together with its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “us,” or “our”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting.
Use of Estimates	The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We based our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.
Principles of Consolidation	The unaudited interim financial information reflects all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim period. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our 2023 Form 10-K.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted	Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-04, “Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50) - Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations.” The standard requires entities that use supplier finance programs to make disclosures about the key terms of the program, the balance sheet presentation of the related amounts and disclose the amounts outstanding, including providing a rollforward of such amounts. The adoption of the ASU resulted in incremental disclosures in our condensed consolidated financial statements, with the exception of the rollforward disclosure which will be effective prospectively for the year ended December 31, 2024. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Yet To Be Adopted In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” The standard requires additional disclosures about an entities segments, primarily about significant segment expenses that are reported to the Chief Operating Decision Maker. Early adoption is allowed under the standard. We are evaluating the effect of adopting the ASU on our disclosures, which is effective beginning with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, and interim reporting beginning with the period ended March 31, 2025. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” The standard requires disclosure of specific categories of an entities income tax expenses and income taxes paid among other disclosures. Early adoption is allowed under the standard. We are evaluating the effect of adopting the ASU on our disclosures, which is effective beginning with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
