PopularCaptchaToken

PopularCaptchaToken returns a response token for standard PopularCaptcha challenges. This variant requires you to provide your own proxy.

What is PopularCaptcha?

PopularCaptcha is a widely-used CAPTCHA service that protects websites from automated bots. You'll encounter it on many popular platforms where you need to verify you're human.

Finding the Sitekey

To solve a PopularCaptcha challenge, you need the websiteKey (also called sitekey). Here's how to find it:

Step 1: Open Developer Tools

Right-click on the page and select "Inspect" or "Inspect Element" to open your browser's developer tools.

Opening Developer Tools

Step 2: Locate the Sitekey

Search for sitekey in the HTML. The sitekey is typically a UUID format like 10000000-ffff-ffff-ffff-000000000001.

Where to look

The sitekey is usually found in: - An iframe's src attribute - A data-sitekey attribute on a div - JavaScript variables in the page source

Provider Recommendations

For standard PopularCaptcha challenges, we recommend Multibot as it's the cheapest functional solver for nearly all PopularCaptcha implementations.

If Multibot doesn't work for your specific use case, try any other provider that supports PopularCaptcha tasks.

`PopularCaptchaInvisibleToken`	Standard invisible challenges with your own proxy
`PopularCaptchaInvisibleTokenProxyLess`	Standard invisible challenges when the target does not compare solve IP and submit IP
`PopularCaptchaEnterpriseToken`	Enterprise challenges with your own proxy

Need Enterprise?

For enterprise-level challenges (Discord, Epic Games, Riot Games, etc.), see the Enterprise PopularCaptcha Guide.

When to Use Proxy vs ProxyLess

Use the proxy variant (PopularCaptchaToken) when:

The target website validates the CAPTCHA was solved from the same IP address
You're solving for login pages or high-security endpoints
You need consistent IP matching

Use the proxyless variant (PopularCaptchaTokenProxyLess) when:

The website doesn't enforce IP matching
You want a simpler integration
The provider's proxies are acceptable for your use case

See the Proxy Configuration guide for details on proxy formats and best practices.
