Enable reCAPTCHA to protect against bot activity from spamming your Ambassador powered Refer-a-Friend (RAF) modules that you've added to your website.

TIP: We recommend enabling this for any RAF you've added to a public page on your website. It's unnecessary for a RAF behind a login experience.

When enabled, your users will simply check the "I'm not a robot" box after entering their email, and our system will detect if it is a human interaction or bot.

If the interaction does not pass verification, our server will block the request, display an error message, and prevent undesired signups and activity.

Step 2: Click on Editor > then, click on an existing RAF or create a new RAF

Step 3: Within the RAF module, click on Prompt, then click Body

Step 4: Within th Body section, scroll down and toggle on "Recaptcha Verification"

Step 5: Click Save

Is a reCAPTCHA enough for stopping malicious bots?

Please note: Researchers have demonstrated that attackers can use click farms to beat this verification with thousands of low-paid workers solving CAPTCHAs on behalf of bots. Please consider your complete program journey to identify other areas you can implement protocols for bot activity.
