CAPTCHA & reCAPTCHA anti-spam module – Anti-bot protection for PrestaShop

Description

Protect your forms against spam and bot attacks

The Secure Captcha module (or CAPTCHA & reCAPTCHA Anti-Spam) adds a complete layer of protection to all critical forms in your PrestaShop store by offering two powerful CAPTCHA solutions: Google reCAPTCHA (v2 and v3) and a classic image CAPTCHA. Block automated submissions, reduce contact form spam, and secure your registration and password recovery pages without slowing down legitimate users.

Main Features

• Dual CAPTCHA protection: combine Google reCAPTCHA v2 Invisible (checkbox), Google reCAPTCHA v3 (background verification), or a classic image CAPTCHA (3 difficulty levels: easy, medium, complex) according to your needs.
• Selectable form protection: enable CAPTCHA on contact forms, account registration, login, password recovery, newsletter subscriptions, and stock alerts — choose exactly which forms to protect.
• Google reCAPTCHA v2 & v3: configure your Google API keys directly from the back office, with full support for both versions and intelligent bot detection based on trust scores.
• Configurable image CAPTCHA: generate CAPTCHA images with 3 visual complexity levels, ideal for flexible accessibility and protection without relying on external services.
• Advanced blocklists: automatically block suspicious IP addresses or email domains directly from the administration panel and stop recurring spammers before they become a problem.
• Detailed installation logs: monitor blocked attempts and CAPTCHA configuration errors to quickly diagnose integration issues.
• Fast and lightweight setup: intuitive admin interface with no complex technical configuration — protect your store in just a few clicks.
