About Ramp

What is Ramp and what problem does it solve?

Ramp replaces manual expense reporting, messy reimbursement, and disconnected spend tools with a single platform that automates corporate card management, expense tracking, accounts payable, travel booking, and procurement. It solves the problem of out-of-policy spending, slow month-end closes, and time wasted on manual receipt reconciliation. Finance teams get real-time visibility into every dollar spent, with controls that block unauthorized purchases before they happen.

Who is Ramp for?

Ramp is designed for startups, growing SMBs, and mid-market companies (trusted by 70,000+ businesses including Notion, Shopify, Webflow, and Eventbrite). It's ideal for finance teams that want to close books 75% faster and run intake-to-pay 3x more efficiently. It is not suited for very small one-person operations that don't need corporate cards or AP automation, or for enterprises requiring highly customized ERP workflows beyond what the Enterprise plan offers.

Real use cases

Finance teams issue instant virtual cards for each software subscription with per-vendor limits, gaining real-time visibility into SaaS spend without sharing card numbers. For travel, employees book flights and hotels within policy enforced at booking time. With accounts payable, a vendor invoice is dragged into Ramp, automatically matched to a PO, coded to the correct GL account, routed for approval, and paid — in a fraction of the time needed with legacy tools like Bill.com.

Key features

  • Corporate Cards — Unlimited physical and virtual Visa cards with preset controls by vendor, category, and amount; no personal credit checks or guarantees.

  • Accounts Payable — OCR with 99% accuracy, four AI agents for coding, fraud checks, approval routing, and payment; pay via ACH, card, check, or wire with zero processing fees on domestic ACH.
  • Travel Management — Book flights, hotels, and car rentals with policy enforcement at booking; hotel rate monitoring and 24/7 phone support on Plus plans.
  • Real-Time Dashboard — Monitor cash flow, spending patterns, and budgets vs. actuals in one view with custom reports and AI-driven insights.
  • Fraud Detection — Machine learning flags unusual transactions and auto-locks cards when compliance is unmet.
  • Accounting Sync — Integrates with QuickBooks Online, Xero, NetSuite, Sage Intacct, and more for automatic reconciliation.
