In the title salt, C14H14N3 +·NO3 -, the cation is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.014 Å), implying significant conjugation of the lone pair of the tertiary amino group N atom with the aromatic ring system. In the extended structure, N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the components into infinite chains of alternating cations and anions propagating along the b-axis direction. Aromatic π-π stacking inter-actions with centroid-centroid distances of 3.5773 (12) and 3.5889 (12) Å may help to consolidate the packing. Hirshfeld surface analysis revealed that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (39.2%), H⋯O/O⋯H (31.6%), H⋯C/C⋯H (10.3%) and C⋯C (9.1%) inter-actions.
