Swedish to English translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Finance (general) / Banking services | | Swedish term or phrase: ansluta/anslutning (till banktjänst) | Silly question - but I can't seem to pinpoint the correct word here. I was pondering "joining", "becoming a member of", "subscribing to", but none of these seems even close. I also thought about "affiliation", but it doesn't seem right for individual persons, only companies, organisations, "bodies".
- So, what do you guys really say?

I think your grammar and suggestions sound fine.

This is a UK site for a bank I know, so they do call it 'register'.
I am sure they ask registered users to log in for the services they require, so yes, I would be a registered user of their on-line services (if I wanted to use them).
They probably tell you when appropriate that the registration process is complete
(or that they need more information to complete the registration process; and the information you provide for registration will be encrypted and sent through a secure connection etc.)
I see you also apply for a card etc.
I think the difference is that you have to be 'vetted' at least in principle before you are given a card, but once you are accepted as a customer, you then register for the services you want, as you presumanbly wil not want them all.
Hope that helps.

Asker: Would you say this is UK English? That would be good for me. Would you also say that you are a registered user of ... and that this came true through a registration process? Sorry, but I do need the full grammar I'm afraid ...
