I wanted to use

add_action( "user_register", function( $user_id ) {
  // $allowed = array( 'particulier', 'bedrijf' );
  $selected_radio = $_POST['acf']['field_5e44e2456a4a9'];
  $user = new WP_User( $user_id );
  if( $selected_radio == 'bedrijf') {
      $user->set_role($_POST['bedrijf']);
  } else {
      $user->set_role($_POST['particulier']);
}
} );

to add users added as private person or business using radio button choice on registration form.

This is the ACF used

<?php
if( function_exists('acf_add_local_field_group') ):

acf_add_local_field_group(array(
	'key' => 'group_5e44e23f16db9',
	'title' => 'Custom Registration',
	'fields' => array(
		array(
			'key' => 'field_5e44e2456a4a9',
			'label' => 'Particulier of Bedrijf',
			'name' => 'particulier_of_bedrijf',
			'type' => 'radio',
			'instructions' => 'Meld je aan als particulier of bedrijf',
			'required' => 1,
			'conditional_logic' => 0,
			'wrapper' => array(
				'width' => '',
				'class' => '',
				'id' => '',
			),
			'choices' => array(
				'particulier' => 'particulier',
				'bedrijf' => 'bedrijf',
			),
			'allow_null' => 0,
			'other_choice' => 0,
			'default_value' => '',
			'layout' => 'vertical',
			'return_format' => 'value',
			'save_other_choice' => 0,
		),
	),
	'location' => array(
		array(
			array(
				'param' => 'user_form',
				'operator' => '==',
				'value' => 'register',
			),
		),
	),
	'menu_order' => 0,
	'position' => 'normal',
	'style' => 'seamless',
	'label_placement' => 'top',
	'instruction_placement' => 'label',
	'hide_on_screen' => '',
	'active' => true,
	'description' => '',
));

endif;

Is this the right way to get the choice and add it? No role is added.

Two, is https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf-save_post/ still needed?

In the end to add the user role this did work

add_action( "user_register", function( $user_id ) {
  $selected_radio = $_POST['field_5e44e2456a4a9'];
  $user = new WP_User( $user_id );
  if( $selected_radio == 'bedrijf') {
      $user->set_role('bedrijf');

  }
} );
