Gravity Forms reCAPTCHA Add-On
Protects Gravity Forms with Google reCAPTCHA. Forms can use the v2 checkbox, v2 invisible or v3 score-based checks, with a score threshold for v3. Tokens are verified on the server against Google, and a failed check blocks the submission or marks it as spam. Each form can turn the captcha off, and the reCAPTCHA badge can be hidden once its branding is shown. Limit: it needs a Gravity Forms licence and your own Google reCAPTCHA keys.
Pros
- Checkbox, invisible and v3 score-based modes
- Server-side token check against Google, with score threshold
- Can be turned off per form
Cons
- Needs your own Google reCAPTCHA site and secret keys
- Needs a Gravity Forms licence key for updates
- Hiding the badge requires you to show Google's branding yourself
