How do I cancel Hinge?
3 min Self-serve No fee To cancel
Short answer
Cancel Apple or Google billing in that store; cancel Hinge payment from Account Settings in the app by tapping Cancel Subscription. It takes about 3 minutes, and paid features last until the term ends unless you delete a Hinge-payment account. Most purchases are nonrefundable except stated cooling-off rights.

What you are cancelling
Dating app with a free version plus Hinge+ and HingeX paid subscriptions billed through Apple, Google Play or Hinge payment (Stripe). This guide covers every place the subscription can live - the website, the iPhone and iPad app, and Google Play - plus what happens to refunds, pausing and your data afterwards.
Step-by-step instructions
Hinge payment (Stripe) is cancelled in Account Settings in the app, or through Stripe using Hinge Subscription emails.
1
Open Account Settings in the Hinge app
If you subscribed using Hinge payment (powered by Stripe), open the Hinge app and tap the Gear Icon to open Account Settings.
2
Tap Cancel Subscription
Tap Cancel Subscription and follow the prompts. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the next billing period. If you no longer have the app, follow the Stripe cancellation steps in Hinge Subscription emails, using the email address that receives those emails.
Deleting a Hinge-payment account immediately cancels that subscription and remaining paid benefits are lost.
Use Apple Settings only when the App Store bills you. Hinge payment on iOS is cancelled in the Hinge app, not in Apple Settings.

Refunds, downgrades, pausing and your data
Four questions people ask before they cancelCan I get my money back?
Help says most purchases are nonrefundable. Roses and Boosts are final. For a Hinge-payment subscription purchased in the last 14 days, contact Hinge Support. Apple handles App Store refunds; Google handles Play refunds. Terms generally say purchases are final except where local law requires otherwise, including a 14-day refund in listed European jurisdictions and a 3-business-day right to cancel without penalty in listed US states, via Apple or by written notice to Hinge Attn: Cancellations, P.O. Box 25472, Dallas, Texas 75225 (California and Ohio may also email [email protected]).
Is there a cheaper way to stay?
To downgrade from HingeX to Hinge+, cancel HingeX first, then subscribe to Hinge+. Cancel at least 24 hours before renewal. After a normal cancel, you keep paid features until the then-current term ends, then the free Hinge account remains. Deleting a Hinge-payment account cancels that subscription immediately.
Can I pause instead of cancel?
You can pause your Hinge profile so you are not shown to new people, but pausing your account will not pause your subscription.
What happens to my account data?
Uninstalling the app does not delete the account or cancel store billing. Delete Account is in Account Settings and removes content per the Privacy Policy. For Apple or Google billing, deleting the app or account does not cancel the subscription. For Hinge payment, deleting the account immediately cancels the subscription.
Frequently asked questions
Does cancelling Hinge end paid features immediately?
Usually no. You keep the cancelled subscription until the then-current term ends. Deleting a Hinge-payment account cancels that subscription immediately.
Does deleting the Hinge app cancel billing?
No. Apple and Google billing must be cancelled in those stores. Hinge payment can be cancelled in Account Settings or by deleting the account.
Can I pause Hinge billing?

How do I leave HingeX for Hinge+?
Cancel HingeX first, wait to avoid a 24-hour renewal charge, then subscribe to Hinge+.
