Ramp for Startups

Administered by Ramp, Ramp for Startups is a corporate card and spend management platform providing US-based early-stage companies with expense tracking and accounting automation tools. Applicants must maintain a registered US business entity and a linked bank account with a minimum cash balance of $75,000 to qualify for this free startup program. Eligible companies receive high-limit charge cards requiring no personal guarantees, 1.5% cashback on all spending, and access to over $350,000 in partner rewards from brands like AWS and Notion. The platform integrates with major software like QuickBooks, Xero, and Shopify to help founders streamline procurement workflows and automate financial operations without risking personal credit. Backed by prominent investors such as Founders Fund, Stripe, and Thrive Capital, the parent company reached a $7.65 billion valuation following a $150 million funding round in April 2024.
