This is probably the most common of the registration flows today. This format gives the user all the information they need before accessing the software.
What's good here?
First, users are familiar with the process. Our minds have long been formed clear mental models regarding how to interact with the outside world. Therefore, when we recognize a model from the very beginning that has worked many times in the past, we quickly understand what to do next to achieve the goal. That is, visitors feel comfortable almost immediately.
Another benefit is that you make it more difficult for spammers and other unscrupulous users to access the application, and you minimize the number of fake accounts. In short, it will be easier to ensure security.
Take a look at the MailChimp signup process. On the very first page, you have to enter your email, username, and password.

Then you need to confirm your email address, and only after that will the system “let” you proceed further.

Yes, there is a lot of friction early on – but you get all the kazakhstan phone number data information you need about the customer, so the incoming flow of sign-ups can be “re-started” with the benefits of re-contact.
What could go wrong?
When asking for personal information before granting access to functionality, be prepared for negative consequences. Marketers are usually greedy for information - but the more data you want, the more friction you will cause.
Samuel Hulick of UserOnboard weighed in on the matter:
"When a user signs up or subscribes, their attention is priceless. Think of that attention as the air coming out of a spacesuit in outer space — you want to use it for as long as you can while it's still there. This goes beyond simply removing friction. You need to take clear actions to motivate the user throughout the entire first stage.
For example, if you ask someone to make a pizza, you probably wouldn't start by saying, "Today we're making the dough and hot sauce." You'd probably say, "Let's make a pizza. We're going to need the dough and hot sauce." Framing multiple activities around an end goal helps them understand why each specific action is important and motivates them to move toward that goal.
To summarize, if you provide access to software at the very end of the registration process, make sure users understand why they need to complete each task and don't leave any room for uncertainty.
