I am not able to add free Ignite clearDB to my Heroku app. It asked for to give credit card information.
Terminal:
Not sure how to add it not providing the credit card information. please help.
Unfortunately, only Postgres can be configured without an "Account Verification" through Heroku. See: Account Verification
When is verification required? You must verify your account if you, or
collaborators of your app, want to:
Use more than one dyno in the app.
Add any add-on to the app, even if the add-on is free. The only exceptions to this are the free plans for the Heroku Postgres and
Heroku Connect add-ons, which can be used without verification.
Add a custom domain to the app.
Receive the transfer of an app that has paid resources.
Exceed default one-off dyno limits on the app.
Have more than 5 apps at a time. Verified accounts may have up to 100 apps.
Try changing your database to Postgres if you don't want to give up credit card info. Just be sure to note the slight syntax differences.

Have heroku free plan. Can't verify with russian phone number. Tried to verify through several USA temp phone, heroku has sent, but i didn't get code. Any ideas, how can i verify my account? And can i verify it with free plan?
p.s. wanna install SendGrid
What you are doing is 2FA Authentication. This requires a phone. But by doing so you won't be able to install SendGrid.
For that you need a verified account. This is not done by a phone number.
Heroku has an article about Verification: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/account-verification
Basically you need a credit card.
Most addons (including the free ones) require a credit card verified account.
The problem was only solved for me through support ticket on Heroku. Someone from their support team manually verified the account.
I am trying to create a Twitter bot and I don't have a credit card to verify the Heroku account. Is there any other way to continue with creating my Twitter bot?
I tried the code on my terminal but directs me to the credit card verification page
heroku addons:create scheduler:standard
I expected direct access after coming all that way
Not if you need addons. The use of any addon besides Heroku Postgres and Heroku connect requires account verification:
You must verify your account if you, or collaborators of your app, want to:

As mentioned by Chris, you need more than one dyno due to which heroku is requesting to add credit card, but if you don't have credit card, you can add debit card info as well.I am not sure if it works in all countries but i tried with debit card issued from (India - visa/master-card) and it worked for me.
If I have made 2 different heroku apps, can someone who randomly sees one also find the other and know that I made it? (They are not linking to each other of course)
Thanks!
If you look at Heroku Website you will notice that it is a deployment service for developers equipped with all required tools. On Heroku there is no way to find who is registered with Heroku or list of registered apps on Heroku just like Github.
So Github has a different service model, and we can easily search any repo, any author (if public). On Heroku there is no area or option to search like that.
Except that, if you are using Heroku for free and their free domain, then the prefix in start of your free domain name will let others know that you are using Heroku platform (with free package or have not configured real domain yet).
Twilio a famous SMS API service provider, has their chat service hosted on Heroku, they didn't configured the domain, hence I noticed Herokuapp in start of their chat window URL, which let me know that they are using Heroku.
How to add rabbitmq (cloudAMQP) on Heroku without credit card details?
I am trying to configure cloudAMQP on Heroku from CLI .
For mongodb we can use mongoLab on Heroku without using credit card .But the same process does not work with cloudAMQP.
Please suggest.
You can go to cloudamqp.com directly and sign up for their free version. you will receive a connection string from them, when you sign up, and you can add it to your application configuration just like any other connection string.
I use cloudamqp.com directly, even with my heroku deployed projects. works quite well.
I am a collaborator in the app which I am working on. While I am trying to install Heroku connect I am getting an error: "that add-on plan is only available to select users". Do I need to be an owner of the app to install heroku connect?
Got this from the docs. It appears that you need to buy heroku connect addon in order to use it as no free plan available.
Heroku Connect is currently GA, but does not have a free plan type.
Please contact your Heroku sales representative for information on
access and purchase or tell us about your project and a representative
will contact you. There is no self-service signup for Heroku Connect.
