Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of presentation: The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The accompanying interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all information and Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income/(loss) and cash flows in conformity with GAAP. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal and recurring items, necessary for the fair presentation of the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2023, its Consolidated Income Statements and Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, and its Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity and Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, have been included. The Company's Consolidated Income Statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 may not be indicative of future results.
Consolidation	Consolidation: The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of PRA Group and other entities in which the Company has a controlling interest. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest, through ownership of the majority of the entities’ voting equity interests, or through other contractual rights that give the Company control, consist of entities which purchase and collect on portfolios of nonperforming loans. Investments in companies in which the Company has significant influence over operating and financing decisions, but does not own a majority of the voting equity interests or exercise control, are accounted for in accordance with the equity method of accounting, which requires the Company to recognize its proportionate share of the entity's net earnings. Income or loss from these investments is included in Other revenue. The Company performs on-going reassessments of whether changes in facts and circumstances regarding the Company’s involvement with an entity would cause the Company’s consolidation conclusions to change.
Segments	Segments: The Company has determined that it has two operating segments that meet the aggregation criteria of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 280, Segment Reporting ("ASC 280") and, therefore, it has one reportable segment; accounts receivable management. This conclusion is based on similarities among the operating units, including economic characteristics, the nature of the products and services, the nature of the production processes, the types or class of customer for their products and services, the methods used to distribute their products and services and the nature of the regulatory environment.
New Accounting Pronouncements	Recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted: The Company does not expect that any recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a material effect on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
