Description

Spammers abuse your site, but users hate typing out twisty letters or ad phrases (aka CAPTCHA and reCAPTCHA). Automated spam filters make mistakes and require constant checking. FunCaptcha presents a mini-game that blocks the bots while giving your users a few moments of fun. It's a real security solution hardened by experts and automatically updated to provide the best protection. It has been installed on thousands of sites, to glowing reviews. https://www.funcaptcha.co/vb/?id=vb

Users complete these little games faster than other CAPTCHAs, with fewer frustrating failures and no typing. They work on all browsers and mobile devices, using HTML5 with a fallback to Flash. Visually impaired users can complete an audio challenge. For a limited time, FunCaptcha can be customized for your site, using its color scheme, images, and logo. See https://www.funcaptcha.co/offer/ for details.
