Do we register with a website?

A representative of a company says " login to our website for more information".

Is it correct to say "okay but to login to your website we first need to register with you. Am I correct?"?

Note my corrections above.

In your opening sentence, you should have made it clear that the preposition was the word you were asking us about.
Don't leave a space after opening quotation marks.
"Log in" is the verb you needed. "Login" is a noun.

To me, "register for a website" suggests one is attempting to reserve a particular website name with a domain registration company. I wouldn't use "on it", and while "with it" is not as such wrong, I think it's unnecessary. I think simply using "to register" is sufficient, especially if "first" is moved to the end of that sentence.
