Not getting raise due to age, despite promotion

Today I got promoted from Analyst to Manager. They have put my old manager on another team and they told me I will now be managing the team. However, to my surprise, I got the exact same conditions on my contract as I had as an analyst. They said due to my age (too young), they can’t give me a raise, since I would be earning much more than other people in my age range (which seems like bs to me) Should I accept this promotion, only for the title, or should I still fight for a raise? Tbh I only care about getting a raise. The new title is just a nice-to-have, that in my opinion is required to get a substantial raise. If I don’t get a raise now, I will not get it in the next few years, I guess…
