Brex vs. Ramp

Very well suited for founders who are building companies in the US but are not US citizens. Works like a charm for start-ups who are looking for a cutting-edge product and not an outdated bank! Small-medium teams. Not well suited for those who are used to traditional banking and prefer in-person interaction or over the phone.

Ramp is great if you want to automate your expenses process. Ramp immediately responds when I (or someone on my behalf) make(s) purchase and I can easily pass receipts and notes live. No more searching for "stuff"!! I spend more time on my job and not worrying about chasing things down or forgetting what was purchased. I charge, I send notes, and I'm done. It's so easy!!! It's incredibly helpful to be able to instantly spin up a virtual card for employees on the go or who have planned expenses. It gets you away from a delayed reimbursement to remote employees and having expenses coded by the employees shortly after they make their purchases.

• Rewards - The rewards were the main reason for us switching. Our previous card provider did not have a good rewards program.
• User Interface and experience - When a charge is recorded on the Brex card, users immediately receive a text notification asking them to send a picture of their receipt. Brex automatically attaches the receipts to the charge which has saved our users a significant amount of time.

Incentivized

• You can forward your receipts to receipts@ramp.com and it will auto-approve.
• You can easily reverse charges if an employee accidentally places a charge on their work card.
• You can send employees physical Ramp cards.
• You can create as many virtual cards as needed.

Incentivized

• It can be somewhat confusing to transfer money between the credit card and bank side
• More help identifying areas of overspending
• More help tracking spending around specific accounts

Incentivized

• The system does not allow you to sort on all columns in some of the areas (not consistent from one screen to another).
• When bills are entered in as a Bill Pay, the expense doesn't show up in a csv file until it is paid but it needs to be expensed in the system as the date of the Invoice.
• If a vendor is paid through a credit card transaction as well as Bill Pay, you have to look at two different places in the system to see the details.

Prompt and always extremely fast to respond. I also think the intuitiveness of their solution negates the need for much support

Divvy allows you to get hyper focused in on how much individuals are allowed to spend. Honestly it is comparable to Brex, but is more well suited for micromanaging organizational spend. Brex is good because I am able to give my employees limits that match our budgets and I don't care about micromanaging their spend.

We moved to Ramp from Expensify at our accountant's advice. We went with her advice due to ease of use, ease of Quickbooks sync, ability to send reminders with one click, and more. We are very happy with the decision to switch to Ramp.

Incentivized

• No fee wire transfer.
• Net 60 credit card terms is good for our cashflow.
• Fast and easy employee credit cards saves us time.

Incentivized

• The actual dollar savings is difficult to determine at this point. We'll have a better idea the ROI at the end of the year. Previously, we received 1% back on all purchases with our corporate card. We receive 1.5% with Ramp, pay per number of cards annually (for Ramp Plus) to auto-lock cards and for additional features.
• Time savings for admin and employees has been significant due to ease of use.
