Ramp review and pricing

Free corporate card with the fastest product velocity in category.

By Ramp Business Corporation · Founded 2019 · New York, NY · private

Ramp is the US corporate card category leader by adoption pace and product velocity, founded 2019, last valued $13B+ at the Series E in 2024. The card is a Visa charge card issued via Celtic Bank as the partner bank, with cashback (1.5% on all purchases at the baseline tier as disclosed on the Ramp pricing page) funded by interchange. Strengths: free baseline platform (cards + expense + receipt capture + GL sync), the cleanest reviewer sentiment of any modern card platform, AI-driven controls that work, and a deep US accounting-integration footprint. Trade-offs: international card issuance is narrower than Brex (US-strongest with Canada and UK rolled out, with limited EU/APAC); the card-program economics depend on the buyer pushing meaningful spend through Ramp to fund the free tier; and growth velocity has periodically stretched customer support response times in 2024-2025 G2 reviews. Cashback rates above 1.5% on specific merchant categories vary by program and are disclosed only after onboarding.

Best for

US SMB to lower mid-market companies (10-1,000 employees) wanting a free corporate card with software-led controls, real-time GL sync, and AI-driven policy enforcement.

Worst for

Companies needing card issuance outside the US/Canada/UK footprint (Brex Empower deeper), buyers wanting an unchanged credit-card rewards programme tied to a personal guarantee, or sub-5-employee businesses that will not generate enough interchange to justify the free tier economics.
