Career Van Hintum started playing in the youth department of FC Schadewijk before joining youth teams of PSV and later TOP Oss. In 2005, he was promoted to the first team of second division club TOP Oss. In his first season with the team, he made his professional debut and finished the season with a single league appearance.

This was also won, as Zwolle beat defending Dutch champions Ajax 1–0 and also won this trophy for the first time in the club's history.

Before the 2016–17 season, van Hintum moved to Turkish Süper Lig club Gaziantepspor. He suffered relegation with the club during his sole season there, and moved to Heracles Almelo afterwards. Two years later, he moved to FC Groningen.
