English term or phrase: "Subscriber"
. "Subscriber" means every person who establishes a connection for access to and use of OnlineTickets.com
Insted of using the literal translation" Assinante" I am using "Usuario" . Is that correct?

Explanation:
Someone may be a "usuario" (user) without being a subscriber. Some sites allows for a trial period by the visiting user before he registers as a subscriber, either paying or not. Not that the term "Usuario" shouldn't be used, but you must be aware of this slight difference. "Assinante" is much used in Brazil, in this context.

Look at this link, for instance:
