Spam Protection
FormBeam includes multiple layers of spam protection (including honeypot fields) to keep your forms secure and your inbox clean.
Protection Layers
FormBeam uses several complementary approaches to prevent spam.
1
Honeypot Fields
Invisible fields that bots often fill out (add a field named "honeypot" to your form).
2
Multiple Layers
Additional layers of protection automatically filter suspicious submissions.
Automatic Filtering
Submissions are automatically analyzed and filtered.
Our multi-layer protection system automatically identifies spam. Honeypot-triggered submissions are stored (marked as spam) but do not send notifications or count toward usage.

Security Best Practices
Additional steps you can take.
While FormBeam handles most spam protection automatically, following these practices can further enhance security:
- Only allow your form on trusted domains
- Use descriptive field names that aren't easily guessable
- Regularly review submissions for unusual patterns
- Keep your form configurations up to date
