The most usual is "ACCEDER" or "ENTRAR". Although it always depends on who
made the website, if it is in Spain or in any other territory where Spanish
is spoken.

Maybe you want to double check or wait for any other answer?

I am a native speaker, though, from Barcelona. In Spanish dialects within
Spain, "INGRESAR" would sound weird. I would go for "ACCEDER".

Hope I've been useful!
