TapHuman – Gamified CAPTCHA & Bot Protection

TapHuman replaces annoying, privacy-invasive CAPTCHAs with interactive micro-games that delight your users while silently running cryptographic Proof-of-Work puzzles in the background. Bots are stopped mathematically — no behavioral tracking, no fingerprinting, no cookies.

Why TapHuman?

  • Zero Telemetry – Absolute GDPR, CCPA, and ePrivacy compliance out of the box. No tracking cookies, no behavioral data, no PII collection.
  • Polymorphic UI – Our system randomly rotates which game is served, destroying the ROI of writing automated solvers.
  • Cryptographic Security – While your user plays a 3-second game, the SDK solves a computationally expensive Proof-of-Work puzzle in the background.
  • 100% ADA/WCAG Compliant – Native screen-reader support and keyboard-only navigation with a rate-limited accessibility bypass.
  • One-Click Setup – API keys are auto-provisioned. No dashboard signup required.

Works With

  • WordPress Login, Registration, Lost Password, and Comments forms
  • WooCommerce Checkout (Classic & Block-based)
  • Contact Form 7
  • WPForms
  • Elementor Pro Forms

How It Works

  1. Install and activate the plugin
  2. Select your favorite mini-games from the arsenal
  3. Click “✨ Enable Protection” — keys are auto-provisioned using your admin email
  4. That’s it. Your forms are protected.

External Services

This plugin connects to TapHuman (app.taphuman.io) for the following purposes:

  1. Game Delivery: Interactive CAPTCHA games are loaded via iframe from app.taphuman.io.
  2. API Communication: The plugin communicates with app.taphuman.io/api/ for key provisioning, connection testing, usage syncing, subscription management, and captcha token verification.
  3. Game Registry: The plugin fetches the available game list from taphuman.io/ecosystem.json.

Service Provider: TapHuman (Oops Games LLC)

Troubleshooting

If the CAPTCHA widget is not appearing on your forms:

  1. Check that the plugin is activated and at least one form placement is enabled in Settings TapHuman CAPTCHA.
  2. If you checked “Disable for Logged-In Users”, test in an Incognito/Private window.
  3. If you are using a caching or minification plugin (like WP Rocket, Autoptimize, or W3 Total Cache), add app.taphuman.io to your caching plugin’s exclusion list.
