Captcha & Bot Protection on the Booking Form

Public booking forms are inviting targets. Automated scripts create fake reservations to inflate competitor no-show rates. Phone-number scrapers harvest guest details. Spam networks test card details. For a busy venue, a single script can pollute the book with dozens of junk entries overnight.

Captcha & Bot Protection runs an invisible check on every form submission. Real guests don't see anything — no puzzles, no distorted text, no "click all the traffic lights." Scripts and automated browsers fail the check and get rejected silently. The layer is based on Cloudflare Turnstile, which uses behavioral and browser signals rather than annoying challenges.

When traffic is suspicious — a burst of submissions from one IP, for example — the system tightens. When traffic is normal, the check is almost imperceptible. Venues with a genuine bot problem see a sharp drop in junk reservations on day one, without any change to the guest experience.
