Accounting Policies [Abstract]

General Presentation and Basis of Consolidated Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, that was filed on March 31, 2017.

In the opinion of management, the Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements on the same basis as its audited consolidated financial statements, and these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year 2017.

On November 9, 2016, the Company’s board of directors agreed to effectuate a reverse split immediately followed by a forward split. The process was completed with FINRA on January 23, 2017. As a result of the split, every ten shares of common stock outstanding prior to the reverse split were consolidated into one share, reducing the number of common shares outstanding on the effective date from 10,989,608 to 1,098,960. All share and per share information in this Form 10-Q has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

Going Concern And Management Plan

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has continued to incur losses, although it has taken significant steps to reduce them. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company reported a net loss of $594,302. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $55,911,801 and has a working capital deficit of $(1,343,259) as of September 30, 2017. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management feels that the addition of ShipTime’s services will return a valuable impact on the Company’s growth in the near future. The positive cash flow from operations is a significant indicator of our successful transition to the new shipping services. In addition to the existing services provided, ShipTime will launch products that are complementary to the current offering of AuctionInc, BeerRun and SpiritRun. Combined, the Company believes that all segments of the operations will benefit from ShipTime.

Although there can be no assurances, the Company believes that the above management plan will be sufficient to meet the Company's working capital requirements through the end of 2017 and will have a positive impact on the Company for 2017 and future years.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PAID, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, PAID Run, LLC and ShipTime Canada, Inc. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Foreign Currency

  The currencies of ShipTime, the Company’s international subsidiary, are in Canadian dollars. Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at September 30, 2017. Results of operations and cash flows are translated using the average exchange rates throughout the period. The effect of exchange rate fluctuations on translation of assets and liabilities is included as a component of shareholders’ equity in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

During the quarter ended September 30, 2017, management of the Company determined that the intangible assets, goodwill and deferred tax liability generated from the ShipTime acquisition were not properly translated into U.S. dollars as of March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017. As the translation error did not have an impact on the condensed consolidated statements of operations, including no impact on revenues, net loss, net loss available to common stockholders or net loss per share, management of the Company concluded that it was not considered material to the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the periods ended March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017. The net impact would have been an increase in total assets, total liabilities and shareholders’ equity of $127,042, $10,270, and $116,772, respectively, as of March 31, 2017 and $540,351, $44,184, and $496,170, respectively, as of June 30, 2017. In addition, the net impact on the foreign currency translation adjustment for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $116,772 and the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $496,170. The condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) will be recast to effect the above changes in future filings.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews the carrying values of its long-lived assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the expected future cash flow from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized and measured using the fair value of the related asset. No impairment charges were incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s services will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.

Revenue Recognition

The Company generates revenue principally from fees for coordinating shipping services, sales of shipping calculator subscriptions, brewery management software subscriptions, and client services.

The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with the FASB ASC Topic 605. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenues when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, product delivery and acceptance have occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

ShipTime recognizes revenues primarily from fees for shipping coordination services. Customers use an online tool to calculate shipping and generate a shipping label. The majority of the transactions are paid via credit card when the label is generated. Revenues are recognized when the customer completes the online transaction.

For shipping calculator revenues and brewery management software revenues the Company recognizes subscription revenue on a monthly basis. Shipping calculator customers’ renewal dates are based on their date of installation and registration of the shipping calculator line of products. The payments for shipping calculator services are made via credit card for the month preceding the service and are recorded as deferred revenues until the service has been provided. Brewery management software subscribers are billed on a calendar month at the first of the month with payments processed via credit card for the month following.

Client services revenues include web development and design, creative services, marketing services and general business consulting services. For contracts that are of a short duration and fixed price, revenue is recognized when there are no significant obligations and upon acceptance by the customer of the completed project. Services that are performed on a time and material basis are recognized as the related services are performed.

Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share represent income (loss) available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income (loss) that would result from the assumed issuance. The potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate to outstanding stock options and have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share because they would reduce the reported loss per share and therefore have an anti-dilutive effect.

For the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 and the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, there were approximately 61,000 and 32,000 and 67,000 and 34,000, respectively, dilutive shares that were excluded from the diluted earnings (loss) per share as their effect would have been antidilutive for the periods then ended.

The Company computes its loss applicable to common stockholders by subtracting dividends on preferred stock, including undeclared or unpaid dividends if cumulative, and any deemed dividends or discounts on redeemed preferred stock from its reported net loss and reports the same on the face of the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Segment Reporting

The Company reports information about segments of its business in its annual consolidated financial statements and reports selected segment information in its quarterly reports issued to shareholders. The Company also reports on its entity-wide disclosures about the products and services it provides and reports revenues and its major customers. The Company’s four reportable segments are managed separately based on fundamental differences in their operations. At September 30, 2017, the Company operated in the following four reportable segments:

a. Client services

b. Shipping calculator services

c. Brewery management software

d. Shipping coordination and label generation services

The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based upon operating income. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in this summary of significant accounting policies. The Company’s chief operating decision makers are the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases, which requires the lease rights and obligations arising from lease contracts, including existing and new arrangements, to be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-02 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 with early adoption permitted. While the Company is still evaluating ASU 2016-02, the Company expects the adoption of ASU 2016-02 to have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition due to the recognition of the lease rights and obligations as assets and liabilities. The Company does not expect ASU 2016-02 to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations and cash flows.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial statements. This guidance will be effective in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 and early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This updated guidance supersedes the current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The updated guidance introduces a five-step model to achieve its core principal of the entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The updated guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is not permitted. In July 2015, the FASB decided to delay the effective date of ASU 2014-09 until December 15, 2017. The FASB also agreed to allow entities to choose to adopt the standard as of the original effective date. The Company is currently evaluating which transition method it will adopt and the expected impact of the updated guidance, but does not believe the adoption of the updated guidance will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the definition of a business. The amendments in this updated guidance clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of businesses. The guidance in this update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those years.

In January 2017, the FASB also issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and other (Topic 350): Simplifying the test for goodwill impairment. The amendments in this Update remove the second step of the current goodwill impairment test. An entity will apply a one-step quantitative test and record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The new guidance does not amend the optional qualitative assessment of goodwill impairment. This guidance is effective for impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019.
