Grading comment
This term seems to be used, although its scope is larger than that of 'rekisteröityjä'. Your existence as a 'rekisteröityjä' is very short-lived. It begins when click 'Register' and ends when you have registered and click 'Done'.

Explanation:
Registrant is correct, but not commonly used. Most online services would talk about registered members or registered users.

If you Google these variants vs. what has already been suggested, you'll see a difference of a factor of ten in usage frequency.

If a person is in the process of registering, but not yet registered, you'd most likely see something like "users in the process of registering".
