10DLC glossary

Definition: A campaign use case is the registered category in The Campaign Registry that describes the purpose of a 10DLC messaging campaign.

Your use case tells carriers what to expect from your number. A bank sending fraud alerts and a shop sending coupons are treated differently. Picking the right one, and keeping your messages inside it, is part of a clean registration.

What use cases does TCR list?

TCR's October 2025 guide lists these:

Standard use cases Special use cases (may need pre-approval)
2FA Agents and Franchises
Account Notifications Carrier Exemptions
Customer Care Charity
Delivery Notifications Emergency
Fraud Alert Messaging K-12 Education
Higher Education Political
Low Volume Mixed Proxy
Machine to Machine Social
Marketing Sole Proprietor
Mixed Sweepstake
Polling and Voting UCaaS High Volume and Low Volume
Public Service Announcement Platform Free Trial
Security Alert

What else goes with the use case?

  • Sample messages. TCR asks for at least 1 and up to 5. Marketing and Mixed need at least 2.
  • Campaign description and message flow. These explain what you send and how people opt in.
  • Separate consent. Twilio error 30913 says marketing consent must be separate from informational consent.

Included in your Registration Kit: sample messages written for the use case you pick, plus your campaign description and message-flow description, all matched to your website. Build my order →

Why it matters for your website

Your website should support the use case you chose. Twilio error 30907 flags a site that does not match the campaign purpose or sample messages. If you send marketing texts, your opt-in form and SMS terms should say so. See opt-in form requirements.
