Tasks
Tasks is Kick's collaboration tool for managing your workspace.
Coordinate work across your team and clients — assign tasks, track progress, and keep communication tied to the transactions that matter.
Pro tip: Invite your clients to Kick so they can respond to tasks directly. Go to Members → Add Member and assign them the Member role → Invite your Client

Adding transactions to a task
Attach transactions directly to a task so your team or client sees exactly what needs attention — with full context preserved.
Go to Transactions and select one or more transactions
