Stop Spam Bots - Add reCaptcha field to Surveys, Contact Forms, Opt-in forms.

Optimise and Grow Online
Clients are experiencing spam bot submissions on their forms and surveys. This is costing a lot in admin time to clean up daily. And it's blowing out their contact records and increasing their Simplero plan unnecessarily.
Other uses have reported similar attacks on order forms.
There needs to be a solution to protect these forms from such attacks.
Recaptcha integration would be a great option.
We need something to stop this.

We've have created an integration with OOPSpam API to detect spam in order forms, worksheets, and surveys. Anyone would like to volunteer to have it turned On in your account so we can evaluate the success of it? Ideally someone that is currently getting spammed through any of those channels.

Lis Alvarez I'm game.

Lis Alvarez I'd be happy to volunteer, but I haven't gotten any worksheet or survey spam, just order forms. And, in checking... it looks like I haven't gotten much spam since, specifically, September 26 2025. Don't know what happened on that date. So I might not be the best test case.

Now getting SPAM support tickets does this cover that as well? And confirm it is nothing visual all "behind the scenes?"

Thanks. And besides opt-in Email forms, I'd love to see this also added to Affiliate Sign Up forms.
thanks so much

What was completed? All of my SPAM exactly as imaged above are coming in through fake product buys with abandoned carts. Do I need to add in as a feature request? We need a way of not having bot abandoned carts taking up our contacts. Thought this thread was the eventual fix.

Added to Surveys, will be on the lookout for others.

That’s great news. Thanks! What about opt-in forms? II manually delete about 20 to 50 spam subscribers daily.
