There are two possibilities: online registration and registration at our offices.
For online registration: anyone of legal age can register their account online on the CUSB portal for free. Having a CUSB online account is not equivalent to having a CUSB membership. To register a child online, the procedure is as follows: the parent creates his or her CUSB online account free of charge and then proceeds to register his or her child (and pay the fee for the child’s membership only). So, after creating your account, at the bottom of the page you will see "Inserisci Nuovo Minore" (meaning “Insert new minor”): by filling in the required data, you can finalise your child's membership process.
