| Organization and Nature of the Company | ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF THE COMPANY First Cash Financial Services, Inc., (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware. The Company is engaged primarily in the operation of pawn stores, which lend money on the collateral of pledged personal property and retail previously owned merchandise acquired through pawn forfeitures and purchases directly from the general public. In addition to making short-term secured pawn loans, certain of the Company's pawn stores offer short-term consumer loans and credit services. The Company also operates consumer loan stores that provide consumer loans, credit services, check cashing, and other related financial services. As of December 31, 2012, the Company owned and operated 715 pawn stores and 99 consumer loan stores in twelve U.S. states and 24 states in Mexico. The Company manages its pawn and short-term loan operations under three operating segments: U.S. pawn operations, U.S. consumer loan operations and Mexico operations. The three operating segments have been aggregated into one reportable segment because they have similar economic characteristics and similar long-term financial performance metrics. Additionally, all three segments offer similar and overlapping products and services to a similar customer demographic, operate in similar regulatory environments, and are supported by a single, centralized administrative support platform. |

| Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of these financial statements: Principles of consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company regularly makes acquisitions and the results of operations for the acquired stores have been consolidated since the acquisition dates. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. See Note 4. Cash and cash equivalents - The Company considers any highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. Customer loans and revenue recognition - Pawn loans are secured by the customer's pledge of tangible personal property with terms of typically 30 days. The Company accrues pawn loan fee revenue on a constant-yield basis over the life of the pawn loan for all pawns that the Company deems collection to be probable based on historical pawn redemption statistics. If the pawn is not repaid, the principal amount loaned becomes the carrying value of the forfeited collateral, which is recovered through sales to other customers at prices above the carrying value. The Company's pawn merchandise sales are primarily retail sales to the general public in its pawn stores. The Company acquires pawn merchandise inventory through forfeited pawns and through purchases of used goods directly from the general public. The Company records sales revenue at the time of the sale. The Company presents merchandise sales net of any sales or value-added taxes collected. The Company does not provide financing to customers for the purchase of its merchandise, but does permit its customers to purchase merchandise on an interest-free layaway plan. Should the customer fail to make a required payment, the previous payments are forfeited to the Company. Interim payments from customers on layaway sales are recorded as deferred revenue and subsequently recorded as income during the period in which final payment is received or when previous payments are forfeited to the Company. The Company melts some jewelry and sells the precious metal content at either prevailing market commodity prices or a previously agreed upon price with a commodity buyer. The Company records revenue from these transactions when a price has been agreed upon and the Company ships the jewelry to the buyer. Consumer loans are unsecured cash advances and installment loans with terms that range from 7 to 180 days. The Company accrues consumer loan fees on a constant-yield basis over the term of the consumer loan. The Company offers a credit services product (“CSO Program”) to assist customers in obtaining an extension of credit from an independent, non-bank, consumer lending company (the “Independent Lender”). The Company's CSO Program in Texas is licensed as a Credit Access Business (“CAB”) under Texas Finance Code Chapter 393 and regulated by the Texas Office of the Consumer Credit Commissioner. The Company recognizes credit services fees ratably over the life of the extension of credit made by the Independent Lender. The extensions of credit made by the Independent Lender to credit services customers of the Company have terms of 7 to 35 days. The Company records a liability for any collected, but unearned, credit services fees received from its customers. Credit loss provisions - The Company has determined no allowance related to credit losses on pawn loans is required, as the fair value of the pledged collateral is significantly in excess of the pawn loan amount. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses on consumer loans on an aggregate basis at a level it considers sufficient to cover estimated losses in the collection of its consumer loans. The allowance for credit losses is based primarily upon historical credit loss experience, with consideration given to recent credit loss trends and changes in loan characteristics (e.g., average amount financed and term), delinquency levels, collateral values, economic conditions and underwriting and collection practices. The Company considers consumer loans to be in default if they are not repaid on the due date and writes off the principal amount and service charge receivable as of the default date. Net defaults and changes in the consumer loan allowance are charged to the consumer loan loss provision. Under the CSO Program, the Company issues the Independent Lender a letter of credit to guarantee the repayment of the extension of credit. These letters of credit constitute a guarantee for which the Company is required to recognize, at the inception of the guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken by issuing the letters of credit. According to the letter of credit, if the borrower defaults on the extension of credit, the Company will pay the Independent Lender the principal, accrued interest, insufficient funds fee, and late fees, all of which the Company records as bad debt in the consumer loan and credit services loss provision. The Company is entitled to seek recovery directly from its customers for amounts it pays the Independent Lender in performing under the letters of credit. The Company records the estimated fair value of the liability under the letters of credit in accrued liabilities. The allowances for credit losses and the estimated fair value of the liability under the letters of credit are periodically reviewed by management with any changes reflected in current operations. Although it is at least reasonably possible that events or circumstances could occur in the future that are not presently foreseen which could cause actual credit losses to be materially different from the recorded allowance for credit losses, the Company believes that it has given appropriate consideration to all relevant factors and has made reasonable assumptions in determining the allowance for credit losses. Changes in the liability for credit services losses are as follows (in thousands):
Foreign Currency Transactions - The Company has significant operations in Mexico, where the functional currency for the Company's Mexican subsidiaries is the Mexican peso. The assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect at each balance sheet date, and the resulting adjustments are accumulated in other comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Revenue and expenses are translated at the monthly average exchange rates occurring during each month. Prior to translation, U.S. dollar-denominated transactions of the Mexican-based subsidiaries are remeasured into Mexican pesos using current rates of exchange for monetary assets and liabilities and historical rates of exchange for non-monetary assets and liabilities. Gains and losses from remeasurement of dollar-denominated monetary assets and liabilities in Mexico are included in store operating expenses. Store operating expenses - Costs incurred in operating the pawn stores and consumer loan stores have been classified as store operating expenses. Operating expenses include salary and benefit expense of store-level employees, occupancy costs, bank charges, security, insurance, utilities, supplies, depreciation, cash shortages and other costs incurred by the stores. Layaway and deferred revenue - Interim payments from customers on layaway sales are credited to deferred revenue and subsequently recorded as income during the period in which final payment is received or when the previous payments are forfeited to the Company. Inventories - Inventories represent merchandise purchased directly from the public and merchandise acquired from forfeited pawns. Inventories purchased directly from customers are recorded at cost. Inventories from forfeited pawns are recorded at the amount of the pawn principal on the unredeemed goods, exclusive of accrued interest. The cost of inventories is determined on the specific identification method. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market; accordingly, inventory valuation allowances are established when inventory carrying values are in excess of estimated selling prices, net of direct costs of disposal. Management has evaluated inventories and determined that a valuation allowance is not necessary. Property and equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is recorded on the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives of 15 years for buildings and three to five years for equipment. The costs of improvements on leased stores are capitalized as leasehold improvements and are amortized on the straight-line method over the applicable lease period, or useful life, if shorter. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; renewals and betterments are charged to the appropriate property and equipment accounts. Upon sale or retirement of depreciable assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation is removed from the accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations in the period the assets are sold or retired. Goodwill - Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in each business combination. The Company performs its goodwill impairment assessment annually as of December 31, and between annual assessments if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The Company's reporting units, which are tested for impairment, are U.S. Pawn Operations, U.S. Consumer Loan Operations and Mexico Operations. The Company assesses goodwill for impairment at a reporting unit level by first assessing a range of qualitative factors, including, but not limited to, macroeconomic conditions, industry conditions, the competitive environment, changes in the market for the Company's products and services, regulatory and political developments, entity specific factors such as strategy and changes in key personnel, and overall financial performance. If, after completing this assessment, it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, the Company proceeds to the two-step impairment testing methodology. Long-lived assets - Property and equipment and non-current assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the net book value of the asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and before interest) from the use of the asset is less than the net book value of the asset. Generally, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the net book value of the asset and the estimated fair value of the related asset. The Company has not recorded any impairment loss for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010. Fair value of financial instruments - The fair value of financial instruments is determined by reference to various market data and other valuation techniques, as appropriate. Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. All fair value measurements related to acquisitions are level 3, non-recurring measurements, based on non-observable inputs. Unless otherwise disclosed, the fair values of financial instruments approximate their recorded values, due primarily to their cash nature. The Company did not have any outstanding balance for financial instruments at December 31, 2012 and 2011. Income taxes - The Company uses the liability method of computing deferred income taxes on all material temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. See Note 10. Advertising - The Company expenses the costs of advertising the first time the advertising takes place. Advertising expense from continuing operations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, was $2,009,000, $1,713,000, and $2,079,000, respectively. Share-based compensation - All share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the financial statements based on the grant-date fair value. The Company recognizes compensation cost net of estimated forfeitures and recognizes the compensation cost for only those awards expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting term. The Company estimated the forfeiture rate based on its historical experience and its expectations of future forfeitures. The Company records share-based compensation cost as an administrative expense. The Company applied the alternative transition method in calculating its pool of excess tax benefits available to absorb future tax deficiencies. See Note 13. Earnings per share - Basic income per share is computed by dividing income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted income per share is calculated by giving effect to the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised and converted into common shares during the year. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands, except per share data):
Pervasiveness of estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and related revenue and expenses, and the disclosure of gain and loss contingencies at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates and assumptions are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, which may cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's estimates. Significant estimates include allowances for doubtful accounts receivable and related credit loss provisions and impairment of goodwill. Reclassification - Certain amounts for the years ended December 31, 2010, and 2011 have been reclassified in order to conform to the 2012 presentation. Recent accounting pronouncements - In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs” (“ASU 2011-04”). The amendments in ASU 2011-04 generally represent clarification of Topic 820, but also include instances where a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements has changed. This update results in common principles and requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The provisions of ASU 2011-04 are effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is prohibited. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures. In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2011-05”). ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of shareholders' equity. Instead, the Company must report comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income which contains two sections, net income and other comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements. This new guidance is to be applied retrospectively. The provisions of ASU 2011-05 are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, and the Company adopted ASU 2011-05 beginning in the second quarter of 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 did not impact the Company's financial position or results of operations, as it only requires a change in the format of the current presentation. In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05” (“ASU 2011-12”). ASU 2011-12 defers certain aspects of ASU 2011-05 that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-12 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures. In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Testing Goodwill for Impairment” (“ASU 2011-08”). ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test described in Topic 350. The qualitative assessment is optional, allowing companies to go directly to the quantitative assessment. The amendments in this update are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, and the Company adopted ASU 2011-08 as of December 31, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-08 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures, as the value of goodwill was not affected by the adoption of this standard. In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment” (“ASU 2012-02”). ASU 2012-02 permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test described in Subtopic 350-30. The qualitative assessment is optional, allowing companies to go directly to the quantitative assessment. The amendments in this update are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted, and the Company adopted ASU 2012-02 as of December 31, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-02 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures. In August 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-03, “Technical Amendments and Corrections to SEC Sections: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 114, Technical Amendments Pursuant to SEC Release No. 33-9250, and Corrections Related to FASB Accounting Standards Update 2010-22" ("ASU 2012-03"). This update amends various SEC paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of SAB No. 114 and was effective upon issuance. The adoption of ASU 2012-03 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures. In October 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-04, “Technical Corrections and Improvements” ("ASU 2012-04"). The amendments in this update cover a wide range of Topics in the Accounting Standards Codification. These amendments include technical corrections and improvements to the Accounting Standards Codification and conforming amendments related to fair value measurements. The amendments in ASU 2012-04 will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-04 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures. |

| Capital Stock | CAPITAL STOCK In March 2008, the Company's Board of Directors authorized an amendment to the 2007-authorized share repurchase program which allows the Company to repurchase up to 3,000,000 shares of its common stock. During fiscal 2011, the Company repurchased approximately 1,360,000 shares of common stock at an aggregate cost of $55,308,000 to complete the 2007-authorized repurchase program, as amended. In December 2011, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program which allows the Company to repurchase up to 1,500,000 shares of its common stock. During fiscal 2012, the Company repurchased 1,500,000 shares of common stock at an aggregate cost of $61,275,000 to complete the 2011-authorized repurchase program. In January 2013, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program, which allows the Company to repurchase up to 1,500,000 shares of its outstanding common stock. The Board of Directors made this determination after considering the Company's liquidity needs and capital resources as well as the estimated current value of the Company's assets. Under its share repurchase program, the Company can purchase common stock in open market transactions, block or privately negotiated transactions, and may from time to time purchase shares pursuant to a trading plan in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or by any combination of such methods. The number of shares to be purchased and the timing of the purchases are based on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the level of cash balances, credit availability, general business conditions, regulatory requirements, the market price of the Company's stock and the availability of alternative investment opportunities. No time limit was set for completion of repurchases under the new authorization and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. |

The excess purchase price over the estimated fair market value of the net assets acquired has been recorded as goodwill of approximately $34,431,000, which is deductible for income tax purposes. The goodwill arising from the acquisition consists largely of the synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of the Company with LTS, Incorporated. The estimated fair values of the goodwill and intangible assets acquired are preliminary, as the Company is gathering information to finalize the valuation of these assets by June 2013. The assets, liabilities and results of operations of the locations were included in the Company's consolidated results as of the acquisition date, September 14, 2012.

| Discontinued Operations | DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS The Company’s strategy has been to grow its pawn operations while reducing regulatory exposure from other consumer lending products, which include certain consumer loan and credit services products offered in the United States. In September 2012, the Company closed seven of its consumer loan stores located in the Texas cities of Austin and Dallas due in part to city ordinances enacted during 2012 in these cities, which significantly restricted the Company's ability to provide credit services products. The Company recorded a loss on disposal of $628,000, net of tax, or $0.03 per share, from these stores. The after-tax operating results from operations for these Texas stores were immaterial in 2012, 2011 and 2010. In March 2011, the Company sold all ten of its consumer loan stores located in Illinois to a privately-held operator of check cashing and consumer lending stores. Under the terms of the agreement, the buyer purchased the outstanding customer loans, customer account lists and fixed assets, assumed leases at all the store locations and hired all of the store-level employees. During fiscal 2011, the Company recorded a gain of approximately $5,979,000, net of tax, or $0.19 per share, from the sale of these stores. The after-tax earnings from operations for the Illinois stores were an additional $514,000, or $0.02 per share during fiscal 2011. Comparable after-tax earnings were $2,881,000 or $0.10 per share in 2010. In September 2010, the Company discontinued its internet-based credit services product offered in Maryland due to a change in state law which significantly restricted the offering of such products. The after-tax earnings from operations for the Maryland credit services operation were $887,000, or $0.03 per share in 2010. All revenue, expenses and income reported in these financial statements have been adjusted to reflect reclassification of all discontinued operations. The carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities for these discontinued operations at December 31, 2012, and 2011 were immaterial. The following table summarizes the operating results, including gains or losses from dispositions, of all the operations which have been reclassified as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 (in thousands, except per share data):

| Revolving Credit Facility and Notes Payable | REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY AND NOTES PAYABLE At December 31, 2012, the Company maintained a line of credit with five commercial lenders (“the Unsecured Credit Facility”) in the amount of $175,000,000, which matures in February 2015. At December 31, 2012, the Company had $102,500,000 outstanding under the Unsecured Credit Facility and $72,500,000 available for borrowings. The Unsecured Credit Facility charges interest at the prevailing LIBOR rate plus a fixed spread of 2.0%. The interest rate was 2.25% at December 31, 2012. Under the terms of the Unsecured Credit Facility, the Company is required to maintain certain financial ratios and comply with certain financial covenants, which include a fixed charge ratio, leverage ratio and maintain a defined level of tangible net worth. The Company’s Unsecured Credit Facility contains provisions that allow the Company to repurchase stock and/or pay cash dividends within certain parameters and restricts the Company from pledging any of its assets as collateral against other indebtedness. The Company was in compliance with the requirements and covenants of the Unsecured Credit Facility as of December 31, 2012. The Company is required to pay an annual commitment fee of 0.375% on the average daily unused portion of the Unsecured Credit Facility commitment.

The effective rate on income from continuing operations differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35%. The following is a reconciliation of such differences (in thousands):
The Company reviews the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. The Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Interest and penalties related to income tax liabilities that could arise would be classified as interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. There were no such interest or penalties for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010. As of December 31, 2012, and 2011, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits and, therefore, the Company did not have a liability for accrued interest and penalties. The Company does not believe that its unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change over the next twelve months. The Company files federal income tax returns in the United States and Mexico, as well as multiple state and local income tax returns in the United States. The Company's U.S. federal income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2007, and 2008 are currently being examined by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. There have been no adjustments proposed. The Company's U.S. federal returns are not subject to examination for tax years prior to 2006. The Company's state income tax returns are not subject to examination for the tax years prior to 2009 with the exception of three states, which are not subject to examination for tax years prior to 2008. With respect to Mexico, the tax years prior to 2007 are closed to examination. |

| Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Commitments and Contingencies | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Leases The Company leases certain of its facilities and equipment under operating leases with terms generally ranging from three to five years. Most facility leases contain renewal options. Remaining future minimum rentals due under non-cancelable operating leases are as follows (in thousands):
Rent expense from continuing operations under such leases was $33,594,000, $28,008,000, and $23,535,000 for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Litigation The Company is, from time to time, a defendant (actual or threatened) in certain lawsuits and arbitration claims encountered in the ordinary course of its business, the resolution of which, in the opinion of management, should not have a materially adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Guarantees The Company offers a CSO Program to assist consumers in its Texas markets in obtaining extensions of credit. The Company’s CSO Program in Texas is licensed as a Credit Access Business (“CAB”) under Texas Finance Code Chapter 393 and regulated by the Texas Office of the Consumer Credit Commissioner. Under the CSO Program, the Company assists customers in applying for a short-term extension of credit from the Independent Lender and issues the Independent Lender a letter of credit to guarantee the repayment of the extension of credit. The extensions of credit made by the Independent Lender to credit services customers of the Company range in amount from $50 to $1,500, have terms of 7 to 35 days and bear interest at a rate of 10% on an annualized basis. The Independent Lender is considered a variable interest entity of the Company. The net loans outstanding represent less than 50% of the Independent Lender's total assets. In addition, the Company does not have any ownership interest in the Independent Lender, does not exercise control over it and is not the primary beneficiary and, therefore, does not consolidate the Independent Lender's results with its results. The letters of credit under the CSO Program constitute a guarantee for which the Company is required to recognize, at the inception of the guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken by issuing the letters of credit. The Independent Lender may present the letter of credit to the Company for payment if the customer fails to repay the full amount of the extension of credit and accrued interest after the due date of the extension of credit. Each letter of credit expires approximately 30 days after the due date of the extension of credit. The Company's maximum loss exposure under all of the outstanding letters of credit issued on behalf of its customers to the Independent Lender as of December 31, 2012, was $17,464,000 and $16,564,000 at December 31, 2011. According to the letter of credit, if the borrower defaults on the extension of credit, the Company will pay the Independent Lender the principal, accrued interest, insufficient funds fee, and late fees, all of which the Company records as a component of its credit loss provision. The Company is entitled to seek recovery, directly from its customers, of the amounts it pays the Independent Lender in performing under the letters of credit. The Company records the estimated fair value of the liability, which was immaterial at December 31, 2012, under the letters of credit in accrued liabilities. The loss provision associated with the CSO Program is based primarily upon historical loss experience, with consideration given to recent loss trends, delinquency rates, economic conditions and management's expectations of future losses. See additional discussion of the loss provision and related allowances and accruals in the section titled “Results of Continuing Operations” of Item 7. Forward Sales Commitments The Company periodically uses forward sale agreements with a major gold bullion bank to sell a portion of the expected amount of scrap gold and silver jewelry, which is typically broken or of low retail value, produced in the normal course of business from its liquidation of such merchandise. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had forward sales commitments through June 2013 for 36,000 silver ounces and forward sales commitments through June 2013 for 6,000 gold ounces of its expected scrap jewelry sales. These commitments qualify for an exemption from derivative accounting as normal sales, based on historical terms, conditions and quantities, and are therefore not recorded on the Company's balance sheet. |

| Equity Compensation Plans and Share-Based Compensation | EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS AND SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION The Company has previously adopted equity and share-based compensation plans to attract and retain executives, directors and key employees. During 2011, the Company's shareholders approved the 2011 Long-Term Incentive Plan, which allows for additional equity grants. Under these plans, the Company has granted qualified and non-qualified common stock options and nonvested common stock awards to officers, directors and other key employees. At December 31, 2012, 1,054,000 shares were reserved for future grants under the plans. Stock Options Historically, common stock options have been granted to purchase the Company's common stock at an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value at the date of grant and generally have a maximum duration of ten years. The Company typically issues shares of common stock to satisfy option exercises. Stock options outstanding as of December 31, 2012, are as follows (in thousands, except exercise price and life):
A summary of stock option activity for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, is as follows (in thousands, except exercise price):
At December 31, 2012, the aggregate intrinsic value for the stock options outstanding was $50,859,000, of which $48,808,000 was exercisable at the end of the year, with weighted-average remaining contractual terms of 3.0 years. The aggregate intrinsic value reflects the total pre-tax intrinsic value (the difference between the Company's closing stock price on the last trading day of the period and the exercise price of the options, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on December 31, 2012. The total intrinsic value of options exercised for fiscal 2012, 2011 and 2010, was $16,878,000, $6,345,000 and $17,415,000, respectively. The intrinsic values are based on the closing price of the Company's stock on the date of exercise. The Company typically issues shares of common stock to satisfy option exercises. There were no common stock options granted in fiscal 2012 and 2010. The common stock options granted in 2011 had a ten year life and vest annually during periods ranging from five to ten years from the date of grant. The fair value of option grants in 2011 were estimated at the date of the grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: expected volatility was 40.0%; risk-free interest rate was 1.0%; expected terms of options was 7.25 years; and weighted-average fair value of options granted was $15.27. Nonvested Common Stock Awards The Company has granted nonvested common stock awards (also known as "restricted stock") to Company officers and to the non-management members of the Board of Directors under the Plans. The nonvested common stock awards are issued as common shares upon vesting. The 2012 awards included 50,000 shares with performance-based criteria with measurement periods beginning in 2012 through 2015 and 50,000 shares with performance-based criteria with measurement periods beginning in 2013 through 2016. The vesting performance criteria for awards with a measurement period beginning in 2012 relate to the Company's growth in net income from continuing operations compared to the 2011 base period. The vesting performance criteria for awards with a measurement period beginning in 2013 relate to the Company's growth in earnings per share from continuing operations compared to the 2012 base period. All other 2012 awards vest ratably over time through 2019. The 2011 awards included 50,000 shares with performance-based criteria with measurement periods beginning in 2011 through 2015. The vesting performance criteria for each year relate to the Company's growth in net income from continuing operations compared to the 2010 base period. All other 2011 awards vest ratably over time through 2018. The 2010 awards included 50,000 shares with performance-based criteria with measurement periods beginning in 2010 through 2014. The vesting performance criteria for each year relate to the Company's growth in net income from continuing operations compared to the 2009 base period. All other 2010 awards vest ratably over time through 2017. The grant date fair value of the nonvested awards is based on the Company's closing stock price on the day of the grant date, and the grant date fair value of performance award units is based on the maximum amount of the award expected to be achieved. The amount attributable to award grants is amortized to expense over the vesting periods. The following table summarizes the nonvested common stock award activity during 2012, 2011 and 2010 (in thousands, except fair value amounts):
Nonvested common stock awards vesting in 2012, 2011 and 2010 had an aggregate intrinsic value of $1,469,000, $578,000 and $930,000, respectively, based on the closing price of the Company's stock on the date of vesting. The outstanding award units had an aggregate intrinsic value of $7,602,000 at December 31, 2012. Share-Based Compensation Expense The Company's net income includes the following compensation costs related to share-based compensation arrangements (in thousands):
As of December 31, 2012, the total compensation cost related to nonvested stock options not yet recognized was $840,000 and is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 3.2 years. As of December 31, 2012, the total compensation cost related to nonvested common stock awards not yet recognized was $5,643,000 and is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average period of 2.2 years. There was no excess tax benefit over exercise price recorded as increases to additional paid-in capital in fiscal 2012, 2011 and 2010. |

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)
|
12 Months Ended |
|---|---|
|
Dec. 31, 2012
|
|
| Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
| Principles of consolidation | Principles of consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company regularly makes acquisitions and the results of operations for the acquired stores have been consolidated since the acquisition dates. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. |
| Cash and cash equivalents | Cash and cash equivalents - The Company considers any highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition to be cash equivalents. |
| Revenue recognition | Customer loans and revenue recognition - Pawn loans are secured by the customer's pledge of tangible personal property with terms of typically 30 days. The Company accrues pawn loan fee revenue on a constant-yield basis over the life of the pawn loan for all pawns that the Company deems collection to be probable based on historical pawn redemption statistics. If the pawn is not repaid, the principal amount loaned becomes the carrying value of the forfeited collateral, which is recovered through sales to other customers at prices above the carrying value. The Company's pawn merchandise sales are primarily retail sales to the general public in its pawn stores. The Company acquires pawn merchandise inventory through forfeited pawns and through purchases of used goods directly from the general public. The Company records sales revenue at the time of the sale. The Company presents merchandise sales net of any sales or value-added taxes collected. The Company does not provide financing to customers for the purchase of its merchandise, but does permit its customers to purchase merchandise on an interest-free layaway plan. Should the customer fail to make a required payment, the previous payments are forfeited to the Company. Interim payments from customers on layaway sales are recorded as deferred revenue and subsequently recorded as income during the period in which final payment is received or when previous payments are forfeited to the Company. The Company melts some jewelry and sells the precious metal content at either prevailing market commodity prices or a previously agreed upon price with a commodity buyer. The Company records revenue from these transactions when a price has been agreed upon and the Company ships the jewelry to the buyer. Consumer loans are unsecured cash advances and installment loans with terms that range from 7 to 180 days. The Company accrues consumer loan fees on a constant-yield basis over the term of the consumer loan. The Company offers a credit services product (“CSO Program”) to assist customers in obtaining an extension of credit from an independent, non-bank, consumer lending company (the “Independent Lender”). The Company's CSO Program in Texas is licensed as a Credit Access Business (“CAB”) under Texas Finance Code Chapter 393 and regulated by the Texas Office of the Consumer Credit Commissioner. The Company recognizes credit services fees ratably over the life of the extension of credit made by the Independent Lender. The extensions of credit made by the Independent Lender to credit services customers of the Company have terms of 7 to 35 days. The Company records a liability for any collected, but unearned, credit services fees received from its customers. |
| Credit loss provisions | Credit loss provisions - The Company has determined no allowance related to credit losses on pawn loans is required, as the fair value of the pledged collateral is significantly in excess of the pawn loan amount. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses on consumer loans on an aggregate basis at a level it considers sufficient to cover estimated losses in the collection of its consumer loans. The allowance for credit losses is based primarily upon historical credit loss experience, with consideration given to recent credit loss trends and changes in loan characteristics (e.g., average amount financed and term), delinquency levels, collateral values, economic conditions and underwriting and collection practices. The Company considers consumer loans to be in default if they are not repaid on the due date and writes off the principal amount and service charge receivable as of the default date. Net defaults and changes in the consumer loan allowance are charged to the consumer loan loss provision. Under the CSO Program, the Company issues the Independent Lender a letter of credit to guarantee the repayment of the extension of credit. These letters of credit constitute a guarantee for which the Company is required to recognize, at the inception of the guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken by issuing the letters of credit. According to the letter of credit, if the borrower defaults on the extension of credit, the Company will pay the Independent Lender the principal, accrued interest, insufficient funds fee, and late fees, all of which the Company records as bad debt in the consumer loan and credit services loss provision. The Company is entitled to seek recovery directly from its customers for amounts it pays the Independent Lender in performing under the letters of credit. The Company records the estimated fair value of the liability under the letters of credit in accrued liabilities. The allowances for credit losses and the estimated fair value of the liability under the letters of credit are periodically reviewed by management with any changes reflected in current operations. Although it is at least reasonably possible that events or circumstances could occur in the future that are not presently foreseen which could cause actual credit losses to be materially different from the recorded allowance for credit losses, the Company believes that it has given appropriate consideration to all relevant factors and has made reasonable assumptions in determining the allowance for credit losses. |
| Foreign Currency Transactions | Foreign Currency Transactions - The Company has significant operations in Mexico, where the functional currency for the Company's Mexican subsidiaries is the Mexican peso. The assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect at each balance sheet date, and the resulting adjustments are accumulated in other comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Revenue and expenses are translated at the monthly average exchange rates occurring during each month. Prior to translation, U.S. dollar-denominated transactions of the Mexican-based subsidiaries are remeasured into Mexican pesos using current rates of exchange for monetary assets and liabilities and historical rates of exchange for non-monetary assets and liabilities. Gains and losses from remeasurement of dollar-denominated monetary assets and liabilities in Mexico are included in store operating expenses. |
| Store operating expenses | Store operating expenses - Costs incurred in operating the pawn stores and consumer loan stores have been classified as store operating expenses. Operating expenses include salary and benefit expense of store-level employees, occupancy costs, bank charges, security, insurance, utilities, supplies, depreciation, cash shortages and other costs incurred by the stores. |
| Layaway and deferred revenue | Layaway and deferred revenue - Interim payments from customers on layaway sales are credited to deferred revenue and subsequently recorded as income during the period in which final payment is received or when the previous payments are forfeited to the Company. |
| Inventories | Inventories - Inventories represent merchandise purchased directly from the public and merchandise acquired from forfeited pawns. Inventories purchased directly from customers are recorded at cost. Inventories from forfeited pawns are recorded at the amount of the pawn principal on the unredeemed goods, exclusive of accrued interest. The cost of inventories is determined on the specific identification method. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market; accordingly, inventory valuation allowances are established when inventory carrying values are in excess of estimated selling prices, net of direct costs of disposal. Management has evaluated inventories and determined that a valuation allowance is not necessary. |
| Property and equipment | Property and equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is recorded on the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives of 15 years for buildings and three to five years for equipment. The costs of improvements on leased stores are capitalized as leasehold improvements and are amortized on the straight-line method over the applicable lease period, or useful life, if shorter. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; renewals and betterments are charged to the appropriate property and equipment accounts. Upon sale or retirement of depreciable assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation is removed from the accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations in the period the assets are sold or retired. |
| Goodwill | Goodwill - Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in each business combination. The Company performs its goodwill impairment assessment annually as of December 31, and between annual assessments if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The Company's reporting units, which are tested for impairment, are U.S. Pawn Operations, U.S. Consumer Loan Operations and Mexico Operations. The Company assesses goodwill for impairment at a reporting unit level by first assessing a range of qualitative factors, including, but not limited to, macroeconomic conditions, industry conditions, the competitive environment, changes in the market for the Company's products and services, regulatory and political developments, entity specific factors such as strategy and changes in key personnel, and overall financial performance. If, after completing this assessment, it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, the Company proceeds to the two-step impairment testing methodology. |
| Long-lived assets | Long-lived assets - Property and equipment and non-current assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the net book value of the asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized if the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and before interest) from the use of the asset is less than the net book value of the asset. Generally, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the net book value of the asset and the estimated fair value of the related asset. |
| Fair value of financial instruments | Fair value of financial instruments - The fair value of financial instruments is determined by reference to various market data and other valuation techniques, as appropriate. Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. All fair value measurements related to acquisitions are level 3, non-recurring measurements, based on non-observable inputs. Unless otherwise disclosed, the fair values of financial instruments approximate their recorded values, due primarily to their cash nature. |
| Income taxes | Income taxes - The Company uses the liability method of computing deferred income taxes on all material temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. |
| Advertising | Advertising - The Company expenses the costs of advertising the first time the advertising takes place. |
| Share-based compensation | Share-based compensation - All share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the financial statements based on the grant-date fair value. The Company recognizes compensation cost net of estimated forfeitures and recognizes the compensation cost for only those awards expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the vesting term. The Company estimated the forfeiture rate based on its historical experience and its expectations of future forfeitures. The Company records share-based compensation cost as an administrative expense. The Company applied the alternative transition method in calculating its pool of excess tax benefits available to absorb future tax deficiencies. |
| Earnings per share | Earnings per share - Basic income per share is computed by dividing income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted income per share is calculated by giving effect to the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised and converted into common shares during the year. |
| Pervasiveness of estimates | Pervasiveness of estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and related revenue and expenses, and the disclosure of gain and loss contingencies at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates and assumptions are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, which may cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's estimates. Significant estimates include allowances for doubtful accounts receivable and related credit loss provisions and impairment of goodwill. |
| Recent Accounting Pronouncements | Recent accounting pronouncements - In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs” (“ASU 2011-04”). The amendments in ASU 2011-04 generally represent clarification of Topic 820, but also include instances where a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements has changed. This update results in common principles and requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The provisions of ASU 2011-04 are effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is prohibited. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures. In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2011-05”). ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of shareholders' equity. Instead, the Company must report comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income which contains two sections, net income and other comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements. This new guidance is to be applied retrospectively. The provisions of ASU 2011-05 are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, and the Company adopted ASU 2011-05 beginning in the second quarter of 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 did not impact the Company's financial position or results of operations, as it only requires a change in the format of the current presentation. In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05” (“ASU 2011-12”). ASU 2011-12 defers certain aspects of ASU 2011-05 that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-12 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures. In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Testing Goodwill for Impairment” (“ASU 2011-08”). ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test described in Topic 350. The qualitative assessment is optional, allowing companies to go directly to the quantitative assessment. The amendments in this update are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, and the Company adopted ASU 2011-08 as of December 31, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-08 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures, as the value of goodwill was not affected by the adoption of this standard. In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment” (“ASU 2012-02”). ASU 2012-02 permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test described in Subtopic 350-30. The qualitative assessment is optional, allowing companies to go directly to the quantitative assessment. The amendments in this update are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted, and the Company adopted ASU 2012-02 as of December 31, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-02 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures. In August 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-03, “Technical Amendments and Corrections to SEC Sections: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 114, Technical Amendments Pursuant to SEC Release No. 33-9250, and Corrections Related to FASB Accounting Standards Update 2010-22" ("ASU 2012-03"). This update amends various SEC paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of SAB No. 114 and was effective upon issuance. The adoption of ASU 2012-03 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures. In October 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-04, “Technical Corrections and Improvements” ("ASU 2012-04"). The amendments in this update cover a wide range of Topics in the Accounting Standards Codification. These amendments include technical corrections and improvements to the Accounting Standards Codification and conforming amendments related to fair value measurements. The amendments in ASU 2012-04 will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-04 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or financial statement disclosures. |
