I am redeeming many codes from game giveaways like on Amazon Prime on GOG and recently ran into the issue that what feels like half the time I have to solve a captcha to redeem the code.

I am not even “spamming” codes, it is like once a week two to three codes. The problem is that the type of captcha GOG uses is very very often completely unsolvable. I have to skip through many until I find one that I have the experience that it will work.

Is there any way around that? I cannot believe people would be spamming codes so much that redeeming them should require captchas.

not sure I misunderstand but it is not I cannot solve them, they don’t let me solve them. e.g. I select everything correct and it still doesn’t confirm the solution.

I don’t remember what kind they use off the top of my head. If it’s “click all the motorcycles” ones, it’s normal for it to take two or three rounds. If it’s the h5Na7 kind, then yeah you should be able to solve it in one go. Maybe try the audio version?
