# 10DLC Campaign Registration

> Register your 10DLC campaign with TCR, choose the right use case type, write sample messages that pass carrier review, and handle rejections programmatically.

A 10DLC campaign defines your messaging use case — what you're sending, who you're sending to, and how recipients opted in. Every campaign must be registered with The Campaign Registry (TCR) and approved by mobile carriers before you can send messages at scale.

This guide walks you through creating campaigns via API and Portal, choosing the right use case, writing sample messages that pass carrier review, and handling rejections.

<Info>
  **Prerequisites:** You need an approved [brand](/docs/messaging/10dlc/quickstart/index#step-1-create-a-brand) before creating campaigns. Your brand's vetting score affects campaign throughput — see [10DLC Rate Limits](/docs/messaging/10dlc/10dlc-rate-limits/index).
</Info>

## Campaign use case types

Choose the use case that best describes your messaging. Carriers review this against your sample messages, so accuracy matters.

### Standard use cases

| Use Case                | Description                          | Example                                                  |

<Warning>
  **Choose carefully.** Changing a campaign's use case after registration requires creating a new campaign. Carriers reject campaigns where sample messages don't match the declared use case.

## Writing sample messages that pass review

Carriers manually review your sample messages. Poorly written samples are the #1 reason campaigns get rejected.

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="✅ Do: Include opt-out language">
    Every sample should include opt-out instructions:

    > "Your order #12345 has shipped! Track at [https://acme.com/track/12345](https://acme.com/track/12345). Reply STOP to unsubscribe."
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="✅ Do: Make samples realistic and specific">
    Use real-looking content with your actual brand name:

    > "Hi Sarah, your Acme Corp appointment is confirmed for Tuesday at 2 PM. Reply YES to confirm or HELP for assistance."
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="✅ Do: Match samples to your use case">
    If your use case is `DELIVERY_NOTIFICATION`, all samples should be about deliveries:

    > ✅ "Your package has shipped via FedEx. Tracking: 1Z999AA10123456784"
    >
    > ❌ "Check out our summer sale! 30% off everything!" (This is marketing, not delivery)
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="❌ Don't: Use generic placeholder text">
    Carriers reject vague samples:

    > ❌ "This is a test message"
    >
    > ❌ "Hello, this is a message from our company"
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="❌ Don't: Include prohibited content">
    Carriers prohibit or restrict:

    * Cannabis / CBD messaging
    * Gambling content (varies by state)
    * Firearms sales
    * Payday lending
    * Content targeting minors without age gate
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="✅ Do: Describe your opt-in flow clearly">
    The `messageFlow` field should explain exactly how users consent:

    > "Users sign up on our website at [https://acme.com/signup](https://acme.com/signup) where they enter their phone number and check a box that reads: 'I agree to receive order updates via SMS from Acme Corp. Msg frequency varies. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply STOP to cancel.'"

## MNO provisioning timeline

After TCR approves your campaign, each carrier (MNO) provisions it on their network independently. This affects when you can send messages on each carrier.

| Carrier         | Typical Timeline    | Notes                                            |
| --------------- | ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
| **T-Mobile**    | Instant to 24 hours | Usually the fastest                              |
| **AT\&T**       | 1-3 business days   | May require additional review for some use cases |
| **Verizon**     | 1-3 business days   | —                                                |
| **US Cellular** | 3-5 business days   | Smaller carrier, longer provisioning             |

<Note>
  You can check provisioning status per carrier via the API:

  ```bash theme={null}
  curl -s https://api.telnyx.com/v2/10dlc/campaignBuilder/{campaignId} \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" | jq '.data.mnoMetadata'
  ```
</Note>

## Check campaign status

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash curl theme={null}
  # Get campaign details
  curl -s https://api.telnyx.com/v2/10dlc/campaignBuilder/{campaignId} \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" | jq '{
      status: .data.status,
      usecase: .data.usecase,
      brandId: .data.brandId,
      createDate: .data.createDate
    }'
  ```

  ```python Python theme={null}
  response = requests.get(
      f"https://api.telnyx.com/v2/10dlc/campaignBuilder/{campaign_id}",
      headers=headers,
  )
  campaign = response.json()["data"]
  print(f"Status: {campaign['status']}")
  print(f"Use case: {campaign['usecase']}")
  ```

  ```javascript Node theme={null}
  const response = await axios.get(
    `https://api.telnyx.com/v2/10dlc/campaignBuilder/${campaignId}`,
    { headers }
  );

  console.log(`Status: ${response.data.data.status}`);
  console.log(`Use case: ${response.data.data.usecase}`);
  ```
</CodeGroup>

### Campaign statuses

| Status      | Meaning                                |
| ----------- | -------------------------------------- |
| `ACTIVE`    | Approved and ready to send             |
| `EXPIRED`   | Campaign expired (renew required)      |
| `SUSPENDED` | Suspended by carrier — contact support |

## List all campaigns

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash curl theme={null}
  curl -s https://api.telnyx.com/v2/10dlc/campaignBuilder \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
    -G -d "page[size]=20"
  ```

  ```python Python theme={null}

      headers=headers,
      params={"page[size]": 20},

  campaigns = response.json()["data"]
  for c in campaigns:
      print(f"{c['campaignId']} | {c['usecase']} | {c['status']}")

    {
      headers,
      params: { 'page[size]': 20 },
    }
  );

  response.data.data.forEach((c) => {
    console.log(`${c.campaignId} | ${c.usecase} | ${c.status}`);
  });

## Handle campaign rejections

Campaigns can be rejected during carrier review. Common reasons and how to fix them:

| Rejection Reason                 | Fix                                                                                                        |
| -------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Samples don't match use case** | Rewrite samples to match your declared use case exactly                                                    |
| **Missing opt-out language**     | Add "Reply STOP to unsubscribe" to every sample                                                            |
| **Vague message flow**           | Describe the exact opt-in mechanism (website form, checkout checkbox, etc.)                                |
| **Prohibited content**           | Remove restricted content (cannabis, gambling, etc.)                                                       |
| **Brand not vetted**             | Complete [brand vetting](/docs/messaging/10dlc/quickstart/index#step-2-vet-your-brand) before resubmitting |

### Resubmitting a rejected campaign

You cannot edit a rejected campaign. Instead, create a new campaign with corrected information:

1. Review the rejection reason (check [Event Notifications](/docs/messaging/10dlc/event-notifications/index) webhooks)
2. Fix the identified issues in your samples and description
3. Create a new campaign via the API or Portal
4. Reassign your phone numbers to the new campaign

<Warning>
  Each campaign submission incurs a TCR registration fee. Review your samples carefully before submitting to avoid repeated rejections and fees.
</Warning>

## Campaign compliance best practices

<Steps>
  <Step title="Match content to use case">
    Only send messages that match your registered campaign use case. Sending marketing from a `CUSTOMER_CARE` campaign risks suspension.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Honor opt-outs immediately">
    Process STOP requests within seconds. Carriers monitor compliance. See [Advanced Opt-In/Out](/docs/messaging/messages/advanced-opt-in-out/index) for implementation.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Keep records">
    Maintain proof of consent (opt-in records with timestamp, source, and phone number). Carriers may request this during audits.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Monitor throughput">
    Don't exceed your campaign's allocated throughput. Check [10DLC Rate Limits](/docs/messaging/10dlc/10dlc-rate-limits/index) for your brand score tier.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review Event Notifications">
    Set up [webhooks for 10DLC events](/docs/messaging/10dlc/event-notifications/index) to catch approval, rejection, and suspension events in real time.
  </Step>
</Steps>
