Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Principles of Consolidation

A. Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries including Call Compliance, Inc., Telephone Blocking Services Corporation, Call Compliance.com, Inc., Jasmine Communications, Inc., Call Center Tools, Inc., Execuserve Corp. which are inactive and its 70% owned subsidiary, Seaniemac. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The Company formed a subsidiary in Isle of Man called Pledge Limited in October 2012 that was intended to operate as a billing entity to utilize favorable tax treatment in the Isle of Man. The Company abandoned this plan and no transactions were transpired through this entity which remains dormant. There were no assets, liabilities or any transactions for Pledge Limited during its existence.

Foreign Currency

B. Foreign Currency

 

The assets and liabilities of Seaniemac, whose functional currency is the Euro, are translated into US dollars at period-end exchange rates prior to consolidation. Income and expense items are translated at the average rates of exchange prevailing during the period. The adjustments resulting from translating the Company’s financial statements are reflected as a component of other comprehensive (loss) income. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recognized in net earnings based on differences between foreign exchange rates on the transaction date and settlement date.

Equipment Depreciation and Amortization

C. Equipment Depreciation and Amortization

 

Equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. These assets are depreciated on a straight lines basis over their estimated useful lives, generally five years.

Revenue Recognition

D. Revenue Recognition

 

Gross gaming revenue is the gross gaming yield which is the difference between gaming wins and losses and includes promotional betting (“Free Bets”). Free Bets are included in promotional allowances and are deducted from gross gaming revenue to arrive at the net gaming revenue. All other costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

 

Significant Customers

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company had one customer which accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenues (17%).

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2014 the Company had none customers which accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenues.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company had one customer which accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenues (8.6%).

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 the Company had none customers which accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenues.

Advertising

E. Advertising

 

All advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs incurred for the production of a commercial are considered prepaid expenses until the commercial airs, at which time such costs are expensed.

Stock Based Compensation Arrangements

F. Stock Based Compensation Arrangements

 

The Company has accounted for stock-based compensation arrangements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Compensation (“ASC 718”). This guidance addresses all forms of share-based payment awards including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans, stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights, as well as share grants and other awards issued to employees and non-employees under free-standing arrangements. These awards are recorded at costs that are measured at fair value on the awards’ grant dates, based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest and will result in charges to operations.

 

From time to time, our shares of common stock and warrants have been issued as payment to employees and non-employees for services. These are non-cash transactions that require management to make judgments related to the fair value of the shares issued, which affects the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements for certain of its assets and expenses.

Derivative Financial Instruments

G. Derivative Financial Instruments

 

We evaluate our financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model to value the derivative instruments. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

 

We have determined that certain convertible debt instruments outstanding as of the date of these financial statements include an exercise price “reset” adjustment that qualifies as derivative financial instruments under the provisions of ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in an Entity’s Own Stock (“ASC 815-40”). Certain of the convertible debentures have a variable exercise price, thus are convertible into an indeterminate number of shares for which we cannot determine if we have sufficient authorized shares to settle the transaction with. Accordingly, the embedded conversion option is a derivative liability and is marked to market through earnings at the end of each reporting period. Any change in fair value during the period recorded in earnings as “Other income (expense) - gain (loss) on change in derivative liabilities.”

Cash and Cash Equivalents

H. Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash primarily consists of cash on hand and bank deposits. The Company currently has no cash equivalents which would consist of money market accounts and other highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

I. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company reserves for receivables that may not be collected. Methodologies for estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts range from specific reserves to various percentages applied to aged receivables. Historical collection rates are considered, as are customer relationships, in determining specific reserves. During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company did not record any accounts receivable and no associated allowance was recorded.

Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements

I. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company reserves for receivables that may not be collected. Methodologies for estimating the allowance for doubtful accounts range from specific reserves to various percentages applied to aged receivables. Historical collection rates are considered, as are customer relationships, in determining specific reserves. During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company did not record any accounts receivable and no associated allowance was recorded.

Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

K. Earnings (loss) per common share

 

The Company utilizes the guidance per FASB Codification “ASC 260” “Earnings per Share”. Basic earnings (loss) per share are calculated by dividing income (loss) available to stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Dilutive common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the conversion of convertible notes and the exercise of stock options and warrants (calculated using the modified-treasury stock method).

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

L. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments, approximate their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are receivable or payable on demand.

 

The Company uses fair value measurements under the three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follows:

 

  Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
     
  Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.
     
  Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

 

    Carrying     Fair Value Measurements
Using Fair Value Hierarchy
 
    Value     Level 1     Level 2     Level 3  
Convertible notes (net of discount) – June 30, 2015   $ 388,093     $ -     $ -     $ 388,093  
Convertible notes (net of discount) – December 31, 2014   $ 421,865     $ -     $ -     $ 421,865  

 

The following table provides a summary of the changes in fair value of the Company’s Promissory Notes, which are both Level 3 liabilities as of June 30, 2015:

 

Balance at December 31, 2014   $ 421,865  
Accounts payable and short term demand notes payable reclassified into convertible notes     72,344  
Convertible loan payable- related party reclassified into convertible notes     176,200  
Amortized debt discount     149,695  
Conversion of notes     (432,011 )
Balance at June 30, 2015   $ 388,093  

 

Convertible Loan Payable- Related party

 

    Carrying     Fair Value Measurements
Using Fair Value Hierarchy
 
    Value     Level 1     Level 2     Level 3  
Convertible notes (net of discount) Related party –June 30, 2015   $ 79,750     $ -     $ -     $ 79,750  
Convertible notes (net of discount) Related party – December 31, 2014   $ 110,862     $ -     $ -     $ 110,862  

 

The following table provides a summary of the changes in fair value of the Company’s Convertible loan payable- related party, which are both Level 3 liabilities as of June 30, 2015:

 

Balance at December 31, 2014   $ 110,862  
Issuance of notes – net        
Reclassification from loan payable into convertible loan payable     81,200  
Amortized debt discount     63,888  
Re-assigned into convertible loan payable- other     (176,200 )
Balance at June 30, 2015   $ 79,750  

 

The Company determined the value of its convertible notes using a market interest rate and the value of the warrants and beneficial conversion feature issued at the time of the transaction less the accretion. There is no active market for the debt and the value was based on the delayed payment terms in addition to other facts and circumstances at the end of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Deferred Financing Costs

M. Deferred Financing Costs

 

Costs incurred with obtaining and executing debt arrangements are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related debt.

Reclassifications

N. Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior period data to the current presentations. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results.

Income Taxes

O. Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 740 “Income Taxes”. ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

The Company has adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 740. The ASC clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. The ASC prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The ASC provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had no material uncertain recognized tax positions.

 

The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties is to record such items as a component of income before income taxes. Penalties are recorded in other expense and interest paid or received is recorded in interest expense or interest income, respectively, in the statement of operations. There were no amounts accrued for penalties or interest as of or during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. The Company does not expect its unrecognized tax benefit position to change during the next twelve months. Management is currently unaware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviations from its position.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

P. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-07, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent)” (“ASU 2015-07”). This guidance eliminates the requirement to categorize investments within the fair value hierarchy if their fair value is measured using the net asset value (“NAV”) per share practical expedient in the FASB’s fair value measurement guidance. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015 The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-07 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Imputation of Interest – Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” This guidance requires that the debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability, consistent with the presentation of a debt discount. This amendment is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its consolidated financial statements of adopting this new guidance but at this time does not expect it to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2015, the FASB issued new guidance to improve consolidation guidance for legal entities (Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis), effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 and interim periods within those years and early adoption is permitted. The new standard is intended to improve targeted areas of the consolidation guidance for legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability corporations, and securitization structures. The amendments in the ASU affect the consolidation evaluation for reporting organizations. In addition, the amendments in this ASU simplify and improve current GAAP by reducing the number of consolidation models. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

 

ASU 2015-01

 

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, “Income Statement - Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20): Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items.” This ASU eliminates from U.S. GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. ASU 2015-01 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. A reporting entity may apply the amendments prospectively. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-01 to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

ASU 2014-17

 

In November 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-17, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Pushdown Accounting.” This ASU provides an acquired entity with an option to apply pushdown accounting in its separate financial statements upon occurrence of an event in which an acquirer obtains control of the acquired entity. An acquired entity may elect the option to apply pushdown accounting in the reporting period in which the change-in-control event occurs. If pushdown accounting is applied to an individual change-in-control event, that election is irrevocable. ASU 2014-17 was effective on November 18, 2014. The adoption of ASU 2014-17 did not have any effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

ASU 2014-16

 

In November 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-16, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815).” ASU 2014-16 addresses whether the host contract in a hybrid financial instrument issued in the form of a share should be accounted for as debt or equity. ASU 2014-16 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. We do not currently have issued, nor are we investors in, hybrid financial instruments. Accordingly, we do not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-16 to have any effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

ASU 2014-15

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued a new accounting standard which requires management to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for each annual and interim reporting period. If substantial doubt exists, additional disclosure is required. This new standard will be effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

 

ASU 2014-12

 

In June 2014, the FASB has issued ASU No. 2014-12, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. This ASU requires that a performance target that affects vesting, and that could be achieved after the requisite service period, be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant date fair value of the award. This update further clarifies that compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet determined the effect of the adoption of this standard and it is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

 

ASU 2014-09

 

In May 2014, the FASB has issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This ASU supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification 605 - Revenue Recognition and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Codification. The standard requires that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU is effective on January 1, 2017 and should be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the ASU recognized at the date of initial application. The Company has not yet determined the effect of the adoption of this standard and it is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

 

The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not expect the future adoption of any such pronouncements to have a significant impact on the results of operations, financial condition or cash flow.

 

ASU 2014-08

 

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360) and Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” ASU 2014-08 amends the definition for what types of asset disposals are to be considered discontinued operations, as well as amending the required disclosures for discontinued operations and assets held for sale. ASU 2014-08 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2014. The adoption of ASU 2014-08 did not have any effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

The Company has evaluated recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA and the SEC and we have not identified any that would have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, or statements.
