Before going through documentation chapters, thanks for purchasing WooCommerce Invisible reCaptcha and trusting LCweb!
On first plugin's activation, it must be activated in order to work.

In case you have an intranet or localhost website (or your server is blocking external communications against the LCweb endpoint) you can use the offline activation.

Is essential to set a target value to consider “safe” for the anti-spam system. The suggested value is 40.
