A Business Profile which is part of the Compliance Center is a single location for US Business Profile registration information. Once you create a Business profile the information can be reused, for example, when creating a campaign or when registering your 10DLC brands, ultimately saving you from re-entering the same information for future US messaging products.
This step by step guide will walk you through creating a business profile, which you can immediately use to register your 10DLC brands.
To create a business profile, take the following steps:
| Legal business name |
The official name of the business as it is registered with the government. (i.e What shows up on all legal papers/tax documentation) |
| Business display name | The name your customers see. (i.e. What your business is called in the market, which can be different from your legal name) |
| Legal form | How your business is set up for legal and tax purposes. (i.e. Are you a Corporation, LLC, Partnership, or Sole Proprietorship?) |
| Business category | The general industry your business is in. (i.e. Are you in retail, healthcare, or technology?) |
| Legal country of registration | The country where your business is officially registered. (i.e. Where you filed the paperwork to start your business) |
| Entity type | The type of legal entity your business is. (i.e. Is it a public company, private company, non-profit, or government entity?) |
| Vertical type | The specific niche or market your business serves. (i.e. If your business category is 'Finance', your vertical might be 'Consumer Banking') |
