Be aware that you have to provide valid details otherwise you will face verification issues ( i.e. the bookmaker will not be able to verify that you are over 18 ) and this can lead to problems with your betting account.

On this part of the registration form of your betting account you will need to pick a username and a password, the betting currency and a security question that you want to use when contacting the bookmakers customer service.
Some online bookmakers will provide you options about your preferred contact methods and some will include a field that you need to fill in with the promotional code for the opening bonus.
