How to Become a Registered User
To become a registered user, the process described below must be completed. This process includes steps that address the issue of security and acceptance of the terms and conditions associated with becoming a Matson website registered user. These topics are briefly covered below.
Security
Matson has made and continues to make reasonable efforts to ensure that your company's information is protected against unauthorized access.
In order to help maintain a secure site, we ask that individuals at companies apply for their own User ID's rather than sharing an ID between several users.
Terms and Conditions
Each individual registering or requesting a User ID for the first time will be asked to acknowledge and agree with Matson's terms and conditions before access to the secured online transaction portion of the website is granted. If you choose not to agree to the terms and conditions of the website, Matson will be unable to establish a User ID in your name.
