accession; or "it's not necessary for client to join the ___"
Explanation:
We almost need more context. "Adhesion" does not sound well in US English, but in fact it is correct sometimes. Adherence might be better. It can also be translated as "endorsement" (as of political candidate or organization policy) or simply "sign-up" (as for a tour or event) Can also be subscription (stock offering) But I would avoid "adhesion" if possible.

subscription or enrollment

Especialmente por esta definição acima, acho que subscription a um certo plano de telecomunicações, como celular, fica bem.

Boa sorte
