Shopware 6 CAPTCHA Plugin

Replace Shopware 6's built-in CAPTCHAs with TrustCaptcha, a Shopware CAPTCHA without image puzzles, and protect customer registration, the contact form, checkout, newsletter sign-up and product reviews against bots and spam. EU-hosted, privacy-friendly and GDPR-compliant.

Quickstart

How the integration works

1. Create a CAPTCHA

Create a user account or log in with an existing one. Then create a new CAPTCHA or pick an existing one. If you want to try TrustCaptcha first, every plan comes with a 14-day free trial.

The CAPTCHA overview page shows your site key and license key, and you create your API key there. Add your website’s domains to the authorized domains in the CAPTCHA security rules so they can use your CAPTCHA.

2. Integrate the CAPTCHA Plugin

Download our Shopware 6 CAPTCHA plugin and upload it in your Shopware 6 administration. After the upload, install and activate the extension from the extension list. For step-by-step instructions, read the CAPTCHA integration guide for Shopware 6 in our documentation.

Read the documentation

TrustCaptcha integrates as a native Shopware 6 CAPTCHA. Once activated, Shopware automatically displays it on the standard storefront forms, including:

Customer registration
Contact form
Checkout (guest order / registration during checkout)
Newsletter sign-up
Product reviews

Different platform instead of Shopware 6?
If you build with something other than Shopware 6, or run several websites and apps, pick a different framework or platform here. If we have no pre-built integration for your frontend technology yet, your developers can integrate the CAPTCHA themselves using our documentation or ask our support team for a pre-built integration.

3. Configure the TrustCaptcha Plugin

Log in as an admin to your Shopware 6 administration and open the basic shop settings. In the CAPTCHA section, select TrustCaptcha as the active CAPTCHA, enter your site-key and API key (formerly secret-key) and save. If you like, you can also adjust the language, theme and sensitivity to match your shop. You can find more details in our Shopware 6 documentation.

4. Test your integration

TrustCaptcha is now active. Send a test request and check that it goes through.

FAQs

Which Shopware versions does the plugin support?

The plugin is built for Shopware 6 and works across recent Shopware 6.x releases. If you run Shopware 5 or a special enterprise setup, please contact our support team. We will be happy to help.

Which storefront forms does the Shopware CAPTCHA protect?

TrustCaptcha protects the standard Shopware 6 storefront forms: typically customer registration, the contact form, checkout (guest order and registration during checkout), newsletter sign-up, and product reviews. Where exactly the CAPTCHA appears is decided by Shopware and your storefront theme.

Does TrustCaptcha replace Shopware's built-in CAPTCHAs?

Yes. TrustCaptcha is integrated as a native CAPTCHA provider in Shopware 6. Once selected as the active CAPTCHA, it takes over from Shopware's bundled CAPTCHA solutions on every storefront form Shopware natively secures with a CAPTCHA.

Is the plugin suitable for shops in the EU?

Yes. TrustCaptcha is hosted in the EU, works without cookies, encrypts data in transit and removes data automatically. We also provide ready-to-use legal resources to make it easy to add TrustCaptcha to your Shopware shop's privacy notice.

Is the Shopware 6 plugin available in the Shopware Store?

The plugin is available as a download from TrustCaptcha and is not listed in the official Shopware Store. If you specifically require the Shopware Store version for your procurement workflow, please contact our support team.
