Ask for any payment. Track it like rent.
Shuk lets you send one-off or group payment requests for deposits, fees, utility reimbursements, or move-out charges — with custom amounts, due dates, and attachments. And when money needs to flow the other way, you can reimburse tenants with the same clean record-keeping.
Any amount, any reason
Request deposits, move-in fees, utility reimbursements, pet fees, or damage charges. Custom amounts, custom due dates — sent to one tenant or a whole building in one click.
02
Reimbursements, the clean way
Send deposit returns, rebates, or owed balances back to tenants with notes and receipts attached — so both sides of the ledger live in the same place.
03
Attachments and context
Drop receipts, invoices, or photos onto any request so tenants know exactly what they are paying for. Every transaction travels with its paper trail.
Simplicity
One-off charges without the awkward Venmo
Text messages and payment app notes are how one-off landlord charges used to work. Payment Requests replace that with something that feels like a real invoice — a clear amount, a due date, and context — inside the same app where tenants already pay rent.
Group requests in one click
Collect a utility reimbursement from every unit in a building at once. Customize the amount per tenant if you need to.
Custom due dates
Charge for a repair two weeks out, or make a deposit due before move-in. You control the timeline.
Attachments and notes
Drop in a receipt, an invoice, a photo of the damage, or a short explanation. Every request carries its own context.
Flexibility
Reimburse tenants without cutting checks
Sometimes you owe the tenant. Deposit returns, overcharge refunds, split expenses — Shuk handles money flowing the other direction with the same clean record-keeping as rent collection.
Deposit returns with itemized deductions
Return deposits at move-out with line-item notes attached. Tenants see exactly what was withheld and why, which cuts down on disputes.
Reimbursements tenants can trust
Pay tenants back for repairs they fronted, utility overages, or anything else. Notes and receipts travel with the transaction.
Records on both sides
Every outbound payment shows up on your financial reports and in the tenant's ledger automatically. No spreadsheets, no copy-paste.
