How to add CAPTCHA to Elementor

What is Elementor?

Elementor is the most popular drag-and-drop page builder plugin for WordPress, letting you design custom pages visually without writing code. Its Pro version adds a Form widget and a Login widget, which makes it a common target for spam bots — any form built with Elementor is exposed to automated submissions unless it is protected by a CAPTCHA.

Why Use Prosopo Procaptcha With Elementor?

Prosopo is a specialist bot and agent trust platform. Every block comes with a reason, in plain words, on a proprietary detection engine with an open-source client stack. UK-incorporated, EU-processed, GDPR-native. It stops the abuse patterns WordPress form spam alone doesn't cover:

• Scraping
• Denial of inventory
• Credential stuffing
• Account takeover
• Click through rate/ad fraud
• Ticket scalping
• Black friday automation (and more general sale automation)
• Phishing attacks
• Loyalty programme automation

Prosopo also keeps visitor data out of Google's data controller chain for reCAPTCHA telemetry — the 2026 reCAPTCHA terms change reclassified Google as controller rather than processor.
