Our previous bill pay process probably took a good 10 hours per AP batch. Now it just takes a couple of minutes between getting an invoice entered, approved, and processed.

The way bill pay works now is super easy. That was such a tedious process before. Now it’s just a couple clicks away, saving us about 10 hours a week, and reducing the number of errors we make.

The whole process has gotten easier for the bill processor. For a recurring vendor, a 5-8 minute process now takes 1-2 minutes in Ramp. It’s literally a couple of clicks.

Switching to Ramp for Bill Pay saved us not only time but also a significant amount of money. Our previous AP automation tool cost us around $40,000 per year, and it wasn’t even working properly. Ramp is far more functional, and we’re getting the benefits at a fraction of the cost.

Time is money. Save both.

FAQs

ACH Bill Pay uses the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network to send electronic payments for business bills—like invoices from vendors or service providers. Instead of mailing checks or using a credit card, businesses transfer funds directly from their bank account to the recipient’s. It’s a secure, low-cost way to make one-time or recurring payments.

ACH payments are a cost-effective, secure alternative to checks and wire transfers. It's typically faster than mailing paper checks and doesn't come with the high fees associated with traditional wires.

Businesses use ACH to pay vendors, employees, and contractors while gaining more control over cash flow, reducing manual entry, and simplifying reconciliation in their accounting systems.

Same-day ACH is available on eligible bills that are fully approved by 4:00 PM ET. Certain exceptions apply—such as recurring bills, high-dollar payments, or vendors associated with high-risk banks. Eligibility may also be limited for new Ramp customers or those with outstanding balances. Learn more.

There's no maximum amount required to send a standard ACH payment through Ramp. Once the funds are withdrawn from your account, the payment is marked as paid in your accounting system—and marked as paid in Ramp once your vendor receives the funds. See more about Bill Pay Accounting.

Free, unlimited free same-day ACH and wires (domestic and international) for Ramp Bill Pay and reimbursements means never missing out on a single day of earning. To unlock unlimited, free same-day ACH, you'll need a Ramp Business Account when you sign up here.

There is no minimum balance or caps requirement and no fees required to maintain the Business Account. Learn more here.

  • Domestic wire: If approved before 1:00 PM ET, funds may arrive the same day. Otherwise, delivery can take 0-5 business days. Domestic wires cost a flat $15 fee.
  • Check: Ramp withdraws funds via ACH from your connected bank on the scheduled payment date (2-5 business days to clear). Once received, Ramp issues and mails the check within 4-7 business days. If a check isn't cashed within 180 days, Ramp will automatically void it.
  • International wire (USD): Ramp first ACH debits your account (1–4 business days), then wires the funds to your vendor (1-5 additional business days).
Learn more about payment timelines.

Yes. You can pay international vendors in their local currency. Ramp first debits your account in USD via ACH (1–4 business days), then converts the funds using competitive exchange rates and delivers the payment in local currency (1–5 additional business days).

Just upload or create a bill, choose ACH as the payment method, select your payment account, and schedule the payment. Ramp takes care of the rest.

Ramp automatically notifies AP teams via email and Slack when payments are sent, returned, failed, or modified. You can also track payment status for every bill directly on the platform. Learn more.
