Celebrating excellence: introducing Ramp's first-ever accounting partner awards
March 2025 update: Celebrate our 2025 winners here.
At Ramp, we know that the strength of our partnerships drives the success of the businesses we serve. Our accounting partners are more than collaborators—they are champions of innovation, trusted advisors, and steadfast advocates for their clients’ growth. To recognize their remarkable contributions and celebrate their impact, we are thrilled to launch the Ramp Accounting Partner Awards, our first-ever program dedicated to honoring the exceptional work of our accounting partners.
This exclusive award is our way of saying thank you to the firms that inspire us every day with their dedication to their clients and their commitment to building better financial systems. Together, we’ve seen firsthand how the power of partnership can drive transformation, and we’re excited to shine a spotlight on the firms that truly exemplify excellence.
Award categories
Our awards celebrate achievements at the organizational level, focusing on values that matter most to our community: collaboration, client-centricity, and growth.
Two awards are open for peer nominations:
- Collaboration Catalyst of the Year: Honoring an accounting firm who leads with collaboration, creating open channels of communication with their teams, clients, and technology partners—including Ramp.
- Client Impact of the Year: Recognizing an accounting firm that advocates relentlessly for their clients, delivering meaningful results.
Ramp will also nominate two additional awards:
- Partner of the Year: Celebrating the accounting firm with the largest number of active Ramp clients from January 2024-2025, showcasing their influence and impact.
- Rising Star of the Year: Highlighting a new accounting firm who has enthusiastically embraced the partnership, driving exceptional results in a short amount of time.
Winning firms will be recognized for their accomplishments and foster deeper collaboration with Ramp:
- A fully covered trip for up to two representatives to an exclusive executive event at Ramp HQ in March, including airfare, accommodations, and meals.
- Customized marketing assets, including digital and printed certificates, exclusive swag, and features in a dedicated blog post.
- An invitation to join Ramp’s product beta group and gain early access to an exciting new release.
How to participate
Award submissions are open until January 30th, 2025. Winners will be announced in early February 2025. To be eligible, nominees must be part of Ramp’s accounting partner program.
You can nominate your own firm or a peer in the industry who exemplifies the values and achievements celebrated by these awards. Whether you’re a longtime partner or a rising star, this is your chance to showcase accomplishments, share impactful stories, and gain recognition for championing your clients and building better financial systems.

This program is our way of celebrating you—our trusted allies—and showing our gratitude for the incredible impact you’ve made.
We can’t wait to see your submissions and celebrate your achievements. Together, let’s continue to redefine what’s possible.
“I assumed I would have to choose between speed and control. What I found is that you can have both. A well-designed system takes friction out, for the finance function and for everyone else.”
Justin Webster
CFO, Denver Broncos
“A well-run district should not have to choose between getting work done at the school site and keeping control of the dollars behind it. We're not hiring more people to do more jobs, so we have to be smarter about the process. With Ramp, the purchase, the receipt, and the record stay together from the start. ”
Nick Brizeno
Director of Purchasing, San Marcos Unified School District
“In senior living, scale only works if the communities still feel personal. We needed the back office to carry more of the complexity, not the people serving residents. Ramp helped us build that infrastructure, so the experience in the community could stay human.”
Ryan Cole
CFO, Agemark Senior Living
“AI is moving faster than the finance context around it. Prices change, models change, and the value is not always obvious from an invoice. We needed enough detail to know which bets deserved more investment — and which ones did not.”
Greg Cooley
Controller, AngelList
“Invoices, cards, tokens. The categories change but the principle doesn't: know where the money is going, remove the work around it, and make sure the spend is worth it.”
Maciej Mylik. Finance
ElevenLabs
“We weren’t trying to retrofit an old finance system. We had a blank canvas, and Ramp gave us the foundation to build a global finance function of the future.”
Justin Dourado
Director of Finance, Othership
“There's just no surprises anymore. No more waiting two months to find out how a job did. We know how it's doing as it's happening.”
Erich Kuss
Financial Systems Manager, Infinity Home Services
“More token spend isn’t proof that AI is working. Less isn’t proof that it isn’t. What matters is whether we’re buying the right level of intelligence for the work. Ramp lets us make that judgment in the same place we manage every other type of spend.”
Cody Nutt
Senior Director of Business Systems, Daxko
