Solution

  • 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.
