Ramp Business Corporation is the undisputed market leader, fastest-growing corporate card platform, and definitive pioneer of financial automation in modern corporate finance. Founded in New York City in 2019 by serial entrepreneurs Eric Glyman, Karim Atiyeh, and Gene Lee (who previously built Paribus and sold it to Capital One), Ramp was established to eliminate the extractive, wasteful business model of commercial banking. By introducing the first corporate card and financial automation platform designed to help companies spend less money, Ramp unified corporate charge cards (with unlimited 1.5% cashback), automated receipt matching, AI accounts payable (Bill Pay), and vendor contract price benchmarking. Today, Ramp generates over $300 million in annualized run-rate revenue at a $7.65B-$8.0B valuation, processing over $30 billion in annual card volume for more than 25,000 businesses (including Shopify, Anduril, Webflow, and Virgin Voyages) under CEO Eric Glyman.
Ramp operates an exceptionally scalable, capital-efficient hybrid business model combining high-margin commercial card interchange fees with high-compounding enterprise software subscriptions, achieving strong gross margins across all product lines. Its commercial monetization architecture spans four primary streams: First, commercial card interchange fees captured across more than $30 billion in annualized card volume on the Visa network, netting high-margin transactional revenue after funding unlimited 1.5% customer cashback. Second, Ramp Plus and Enterprise SaaS subscriptions ($12-$15/user/month), charging mid-market and Global 2000 corporate clients for multi-entity international consolidation, custom approval workflows, and advanced ERP automation. Third, cross-border accounts payable foreign exchange markups and international wire fees on multi-currency vendor payments across 175+ countries. Fourth, financing fees on Ramp Flex working capital extensions (30, 60, or 90 days).
