The basics

What is a client portal for accountants?

A client portal is a secure, branded platform where accounting firms and their clients collaborate in one place. Instead of scattered emails, shared drives, and phone calls — everything happens through a single portal that your clients access with a magic link.

Client portal software replaces the back-and-forth of document collection, deadline reminders, and communication. Your clients see their tasks, upload files, and message your team. You see everything organized in your workflow — no chasing, no missed deadlines.

Because the portal lives inside Uku, every document, task, and message becomes part of a single source of truth for who's doing what across the team — so anyone can pick up a client conversation without digging through inboxes.

Client Data Collection

The end of slow, disorganized data collection.

Assign document tasks with checklists and deadlines. Uku handles follow-ups and deadline reminders to get documents fast.

  • Recurring document requests with to-do lists
  • Clients upload files straight into your workflow
  • Follow-up reminders before and after the deadline — automatic

  1. Set up a recurring task starting from the 1st of the month with a deadline on the 5th.
  2. Add a to-do list of required documents for every month, plus the option to add new ones.
  3. Uku notifies the client via email with follow-up reminders before and after the deadline.
  4. The client adds documents and answers questions. You complete work on time — without chasing.
Use case 2

  1. Set a recurring task with the meeting agenda, report links, and notes.
  2. Add a meeting link and assign it to the Client Portal with your message.
  3. The client gets notified via email to prepare questions for the meeting.
  4. Make a meeting memo and add it to the notes with the video recording for easy reference.
Use case 3

Simplified client onboarding

  1. Assign an onboarding task connected with dependent tasks from a template.
  2. Add specific questions about the client's needs and situation.
  3. The client gets notified via email with follow-ups to complete each step.

Implementing a client portal could add €40,000+ of value to your firm annually — 20 accountants × 2h/day chasing clients is 2,000+ hours per year.

FAQ

Client portal questions.

What is client portal software?

Client portal software gives your clients a secure, branded space to interact with your firm. Instead of email chains and shared folders, clients log in to see their tasks, upload documents, communicate with your team, and track deadlines — all in one place.

How do my clients log into the client portal?

Through a magic link sent to their email — no usernames or passwords needed. You can add clients one by one or in bulk, and optionally send a welcome email with an introductory sample task.

Can I use my branding in Uku's client portal?

Yes! Add your logo, an icon, brand colors, a custom domain name, and a description. You can preview your portal before inviting clients. Each portal is white-labeled to your firm.

Is Uku's client portal secure?

Yes. Uku is SOC 2 certified and uses bank-level encryption. Clients access the portal through a secure magic link. All documents are encrypted in transit and at rest, and your firm controls exactly what each client can see.

How is a client portal different from email?

Email is scattered and easy to lose track of. A portal centralizes document requests, deadlines, communication, and uploads in one branded space. Automatic reminders replace manual follow-ups. Nothing gets lost in an inbox.

How much does the client portal cost?

The client portal is included free with Uku's Team and Enterprise plans. No extra cost, no per-client fees.

Is the client portal available on mobile?

Yes! It works on any device — desktop, tablet, or smartphone. Your clients can upload documents and complete tasks anywhere.

Can I switch from another client portal to Uku?

Yes. Firms switching from another client portal or platform can migrate quickly: import your client list in bulk, set up branding, and invite clients — most firms are live within a day.
