Bot Protection — Turnstile & reCAPTCHA Setup
Bot protection prevents automated scripts from consuming your virtual try-on quota. FitMagik supports two popular bot protection options.
Why Enable Bot Protection?
Without bot protection, automated bots can rapidly use up your monthly try-on limit, leaving fewer try-ons available for real customers. Enabling protection ensures only genuine shoppers can use the feature.
Option 1: Cloudflare Turnstile (Recommended)
Cloudflare Turnstile provides invisible bot protection with zero friction for customers — no puzzles or checkboxes required.
How to Set Up Turnstile
- Go to the Cloudflare Dashboard and sign in (or create a free account)
- Navigate to Turnstile in the sidebar
- Click Add Site and enter your store's domain
- Copy the Site Key and Secret Key
- In FitMagik, go to Settings → Bot Protection
- Under Bot Protection Type choose Cloudflare Turnstile (Recommended) and click Save protection type
- In the Cloudflare Turnstile Settings card that appears, paste your Site Key and Secret Key and click Save Turnstile settings
Option 2: Google reCAPTCHA (v2 or v3)
Google reCAPTCHA is a widely-used alternative that can show a checkbox challenge (v2) or work invisibly (v3).
How to Set Up reCAPTCHA
- Go to the Google reCAPTCHA Admin and sign in
- Click + to register a new site
- Choose reCAPTCHA v2 (checkbox) or reCAPTCHA v3 (invisible)
- Add your store's domain and submit
- Copy the Site Key and Secret Key
- In FitMagik, go to Settings → Bot Protection
- Under Bot Protection Type choose Google reCAPTCHA and click Save protection type
- In the Google reCAPTCHA Settings card that appears, pick the reCAPTCHA Version that matches the site you created (v2 Checkbox or v3 Invisible), paste your keys and click Save reCAPTCHA settings
