Glad to see someone else had that problem too - I spent hours reading through the Twilio documentation to try to figure out if transactional sms was allowed because all I kept seeing was campaign registration, campaign fees, and etc all about campaign sms. And if we had to pay the campaign monthly fees even if we sent transactional sms, not campaign.

I understand that it's not Twilio's fault, but they desperately need to hire some developer evangelists to write some documentation.

I also use SMS for transactional SMS, and my understanding from their docs was also they don't, from this page: https://support.twilio.com/hc/en-us/articles/223133807-What-...
