At this time, you do not need anything.  No registration number, etc.
That may change in the near future, however.  The charge is $2.00/minute
with the first minute free.  If you are blocked from calling 900 numbers,
there is a credit card line available where you are charged a flat fee
of $20.00 for the call.  That number is (206)646-5102.  

Again, this is for programming consulting services.  Not simple startup
or installation problems.  For those issues, you can call (206)646-5101.
