If you are getting a transaction error on Hinge while trying to purchase a subscription, roses, or boosts, you’re not alone. Recently, many users have reported encountering this issue, which can be both frustrating and confusing.
In this guide, we’ll explore the cause of the Hinge transaction error and provide you with solutions to fix the problem so you can get back to enjoying all that Hinge has to offer. But first, discover if Hinge has read receipts.
What Does the Transaction Error on Hinge Mean?
The transaction error on Hinge typically occurs when attempting to purchase roses or a premium plan. This error indicates that your account has been shadowbanned or permanently banned, preventing the completion of the transaction.
Hinge does not send email or in-app alerts when your account is banned. To check if your account is indeed banned, log out and attempt to log back in. If your account is banned, you will see a notification at that time.
How to Bypass a Hinge Ban
Unfortunately, it is virtually impossible to bypass a ban on Hinge. Your best option is to create a new account. However, certain precautions must be taken when creating a new account to avoid being banned again.
Tips for creating a new Hinge account:
- Use a different device, phone number, and email address than the ones associated with your banned account.
- Avoid using any pictures that were on your banned Hinge account.
- Enter a different date for your birthday (the year can remain the same).
- Do not connect your social media accounts if they were linked to your banned account.
- Use different bank details when subscribing to premium features.
- And finally, be sure to follow Hinge's rules.
You can try appealing your ban by sending an email to hello@hinge.co. However, it is very unlikely that you will receive a response, let alone have your account unbanned. But it’s still worth a try.
