The Akatsuki has a total of ten members. They all work in pairs and are usually paired in a way that their combat skills complement each other.
Nagato Uzumaki was the leader of Akatsuki. He gave each of the Akatsuki members rings to be worn on a specific finger. All the rings had Japanese Kanji symbols that are related to Chinese Mythology. Each member is supposed to stand on a specific finger of the Gedo Statue, which is the same finger as the one on which they wear the ring.
The rings help the members in sealing tailed beasts into the Gedo statue. The rings are very important and irreplaceable. The different Kanji on their ring would appear to indicate that the sealing was taking place. The ring was made by Nagato, and due to transferring the chakra between the rings, it also acts as a communication device between the members.
This also allows him to keep tabs on all the members. This ring helped the members to project themselves during meetings.
Itachi wears a red ring with the Japanese Kanji 朱 (Shu) which means ‘Crimson’ or ‘Scarlet’. The ring has to be worn on the right ring finger.
Sasori wears a purple colored ring with the Japanese Kanji 玉 (Gyoki) which translates to ‘Jewel’. Sasori has to wear the ring on his left thumb. After his death, when Zetsu and Tobi go to find his ring, Tobi then replaces Sasori.
Tobi wears the same purple colored ring with the Japanese Kanji 玉 (Gyoki) which translates to ‘Jewel’. After Tobi takes over the Akatsuki after Pain's death and after killing Konan, he discards his ring along with his cloak.
Kisame wears a yellow ring with Japanese Kanji 南 (Nan) which means ‘South’. Kisame has to wear his ring on his left ring finger.

Deidara wore a ring that was blue in color with the Japanese Kanji 青 (Sho) which translates to ‘Blue’. Deidara used to wear his ring on his right index finger. After Deidara loses his arm with the ring during his fight with Sasuke, he was way more concerned about recovering the ring rather than his arm itself.
