Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS	NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS Organization and Business Remark Media, Inc. and subsidiaries (“Remark”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is a global digital media company headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, with additional operations in China and Brazil. Our primary operations consist of owning and operating digital media properties, such as websites and applications for mobile devices, primarily in the United States and Asia. Through our websites and mobile applications, we provide customers with the ability to file business and personal tax extensions with the IRS, to make hotel reservations through our Roomlia mobile application, to purchase merchandise via our Bikini.com website, and we provide the ability for third-party companies to advertise on our websites. Our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the ticker symbol MARK. Liquidity Considerations During the six months ended June 30, 2015, and in each fiscal year since our inception, we have incurred net losses and generated negative cash flow from operations, resulting in an accumulated deficit of $136.2 million and a cash and cash equivalents balance of $0.8 million, both amounts as of June 30, 2015. Our revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $1.6 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we issued a total of 1,100,000 shares of our common stock to investors in certain private placements and registered direct offerings in exchange for approximately $4.1 million in cash. Also, during the first quarter of 2015, we issued an unsecured convertible promissory note in the original principal amount of $0.3 million in exchange for cash of the same amount. We intend to fund our future operations, particularly related to our young adult lifestyle and personal finance properties, through dynamic growth. Additionally, we are actively evaluating potential acquisitions that would provide additional revenue, assessing the sale of certain non-core assets, and considering sales of minority interests in certain of our operating businesses. Absent acquisitions of new businesses or material increases in revenue from our existing customers, neither of which we can assure, current revenue growth will not be sufficient to sustain our operations in the long term; therefore, we will likely need to obtain additional capital through equity or debt financing and/or by divesting of certain assets or businesses, neither of which we can assure will happen on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. In addition, if we obtain capital by issuing equity, such transaction(s) may dilute existing stockholders. We can neither be certain that we will be successful at raising capital at all, nor be certain regarding what amount of capital we may raise. Conditions in the debt and equity markets, as well as the volatility of investor sentiment regarding macroeconomic and microeconomic conditions, will play primary roles in determining whether we can successfully obtain additional capital. Should we fail to successfully implement our plans described herein, such failure would have a material adverse effect on our business, including the possible cessation of operations. A variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control, affect our cash flow; those factors include regulatory issues, competition, financial markets and other general business conditions. Based upon our most recent cash flow projections, we believe that we have sufficient existing cash, cash equivalents and cash resources to meet our ongoing requirements through June 30, 2016, including repayment of our existing debt as it matures. However, projecting operating results is inherently uncertain because anticipated expenses may exceed current forecasts; therefore, we cannot assure you that we will generate sufficient income and cash flow to meet all of our liquidity requirements.

Liquidity Considerations

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, and in each fiscal year since our inception, we have incurred net losses and generated negative cash flow from operations, resulting in an accumulated deficit of $136.2 million and a cash and cash equivalents balance of $0.8 million, both amounts as of June 30, 2015. Our revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $1.6 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, we issued a total of 1,100,000 shares of our common stock to investors in certain private placements and registered direct offerings in exchange for approximately $4.1 million in cash. Also, during the first quarter of 2015, we issued an unsecured convertible promissory note in the original principal amount of $0.3 million in exchange for cash of the same amount.

We intend to fund our future operations, particularly related to our young adult lifestyle and personal finance properties, through dynamic growth.
