Hinge is a mobile-first dating application designed to help users form long-term relationships rather than casual connections. Profiles emphasize photos plus written prompts to showcase personality, and the app’s recommendation engine suggests compatible matches based on user preferences and behavior. Hinge operates globally and is part of Match Group’s portfolio of dating brands.
A “Khokha Inc” charge on a Visa or bank statement is widely reported as one of the billing descriptors used for Hinge subscriptions and in‑app purchases, alongside other labels like HINGE, HINGE.CO, MG HINGE or MTCH*HINGE, depending on platform and payment routing. These charges usually relate to recurring Hinge+ or HingeX subscriptions or one‑time purchases of features such as boosts or “Roses,” and typically fall in the range seen for app‑store subscription pricing.([legalclarity.org](https://legalclarity.org/khokha-inc-charge-what-it-is-and-how-to-remove-it/?utm_source=openai))
If you’re unsure about a Khokha Inc or Hinge charge, start by checking your purchase history in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store and the subscription section inside the Hinge app to confirm renewal dates and amounts.([legalclarity.org](https://legalclarity.org/khokha-inc-charge-what-it-is-and-how-to-remove-it/?utm_source=openai)) Make sure no one else with access to your phone or payment method has used Hinge. If something doesn’t match your records, you can contact Hinge support through the app or website, or dispute the transaction with your bank or card issuer, providing screenshots of any subscription cancellations or receipts.

These are the raw merchant codes that appear on bank and credit card statements that we've identified as belonging to Hinge.
Why does my bank statement show a charge from “Khokha Inc” instead of Hinge?
Hinge transactions can be processed through different internal billing entities, and one of the merchant descriptors that may appear on card statements is “Khokha Inc,” rather than the Hinge brand name. This is normal for app‑based subscriptions and does not automatically indicate fraud; verify by matching the date and amount to your Hinge or app‑store purchase history.
What types of Hinge purchases commonly appear as Khokha Inc charges?
Khokha Inc charges are most often linked to paid Hinge subscriptions such as Hinge+ or HingeX, but they can also correspond to one‑time in‑app purchases like boosts or premium features. The exact amount will depend on your country, platform (Apple or Google), and whether it’s a recurring plan or a single purchase.
How can I confirm whether a Khokha Inc charge is from my Hinge subscription?
First, open the Apple App Store or Google Play Store account that’s tied to your card and review your purchase or subscription history for the same date and amount as the Khokha Inc charge. Then, in the Hinge app, go to Settings and check your subscription status and renewal date. If those line up with the transaction on your statement, the charge is from your active Hinge membership.
How do I cancel my Hinge subscription so I stop seeing Khokha Inc charges?
Because Hinge subscriptions are typically managed by Apple or Google, you must cancel through the same store where you subscribed. On iOS, go to Settings > Your Name > Subscriptions and select Hinge to cancel; on Android, open Google Play > Payments & subscriptions > Subscriptions and cancel Hinge. After cancellation, you’ll keep access until the end of the current billing period, and future Khokha Inc renewal charges should stop.
Can I get a refund for a Khokha Inc/Hinge charge I didn’t intend to make?
Refunds for Hinge subscriptions or in‑app purchases are generally handled by the platform where you paid. If you subscribed via the Apple App Store or Google Play, submit a refund request through their respective refund pages, explaining the issue and including dates and amounts. If the charge appears clearly unauthorized, also contact your bank or card issuer to dispute it and, if needed, request a new card number.
Why do I see multiple small Khokha Inc charges or temporary amounts from Hinge?
Occasionally, you may see small or pending Khokha Inc charges when updating a payment method or starting a new Hinge subscription. These are typically authorization holds placed by the processor to verify your card and should drop off automatically after a few days. Only posted, non‑pending transactions represent actual billed amounts.
How often will Hinge bill me under the Khokha Inc descriptor?
If you’re on a recurring Hinge plan, you’ll usually be billed monthly or at the interval you selected (for example, 3‑ or 6‑month packages). Each renewal may appear as a Khokha Inc or similarly labeled Hinge charge on or just after your scheduled renewal date until you cancel the subscription.
What should I do if I don’t have a Hinge account but see a Khokha Inc charge?
If you’ve never used Hinge and no one with access to your card recognizes the purchase, treat the Khokha Inc transaction as potentially unauthorized. Contact your bank or card issuer immediately to report the charge, ask them to investigate, and consider cancelling the card. You can also search your email for any app‑store receipts referencing Hinge or subscriptions to gather more information for your dispute.
