TXT is a DNS record, which contains information in human-readable form for external sources to gain info about a certain Internet domain or subdomain. In the most common situation, this sort of record is used to prove that you own a domain name if you're trying to add it to a search engine or to some site traffic analytics platform. As only the Internet domain owner/administrator may add custom DNS records, the TXT record works as a proof of ownership for the corporation providing the service. Another popular use for this type of records is the e-mail SPF (Sender Policy Framework) security, that makes sure that an email address won't be spoofed and that individuals will not receive junk mail from allegedly your mailbox. The TXT record features information about the mail server where your online messages come from and functions as proof that it's a trusted one. Because there are no restrictions concerning the content of this sort of a record, you can add any other information also.
