reCAPTCHA

Prevent spam with Google reCAPTCHA v3. Identify automated spam entries while providing an uninterrupted experience for real users.

Official Gravity Forms Integration

Spam protection that works in the background. 

Better experience, better conversions 

No puzzles, no checkboxes – reCAPTCHA v3 runs invisibly, so users complete your forms without interruption. 

Free from Google 

Google reCAPTCHA is a free security service – sign up, create your keys, and start protecting your forms at no cost.

Included with all licenses 

The reCAPTCHA Add-On is available with every Gravity Forms license – Basic, Pro, Elite, and Nonprofit.

How reCAPTCHA v3 works 

Every interaction on your site gets a score – 1.0 is likely human, 0.0 is probably a bot. Submissions below your threshold go straight to spam.

Score-based filtering: Set your own threshold and let reCAPTCHA sort the rest.

Stored with entries: Every submission records its reCAPTCHA score so you can review flagged entries.

Works on any form: Add reCAPTCHA v3 protection to one form or all of them.

reCAPTCHA v2 built in 

Need a checkbox or invisible reCAPTCHA? Gravity Forms has built-in support for reCAPTCHA v2 – no add-on required.

Checkbox reCAPTCHA: The classic “I’m not a robot” tick box.

Invisible reCAPTCHA: Verifies users without any visible challenge.

No extra cost: reCAPTCHA v2 is included in Gravity Forms core.

The Gravity Forms anti-spam toolkit 

reCAPTCHA is one of several ways Gravity Forms helps you combat spam. Combine methods for stronger protection.

Akismet: Checks submissions against a global spam database – filters out malicious entries automatically.

Honeypot protection: A hidden field that catches bots without affecting real users.

Cloudflare Turnstile: A privacy-friendly CAPTCHA alternative – verify users without puzzles.

Transparent pricing?
That’s affirmative.
