On the section 'bank information' of the registration form.
the field 'account number' refers to a bank identifier number , usually between 8 and 12 characters, provided by your bank. However this can differ from bank to bank and sometimes is not detected by the form. You can simply copy/paste again the very same IBAN you wrote above, this will be sufficient to submit the form.

I have filled the form but I can't click on "Submit", why ?
When the 'submit' button is not clickable, it's either because all mandatory fields are not fully and correctly filled (for that, we would advise to review/double check all fields of the form) , or, because there is an issue at the server/browser level, which can be solved by deleting cache/cookies, and/or re-trying from an alternate browser.
Please make sure that all tabs are 'green' and completely filled in.
