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.

A heart-felt thank you

Every day, we’re inspired by the passion, expertise, and collaboration our accounting partners bring to the table. You are the ones who make it possible to turn bold ideas into tangible results for businesses across the globe. 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.

With Ramp, everything lives in one place. You can click into a vendor and see every transaction, invoice, and contract. That didn’t exist in Zip. It’s made approvals much faster because decision-makers aren’t chasing down information—they have it all at their fingertips.

More vendors are allowing for discounts now, because they’re seeing the quick payment. That started with Ramp—getting everyone paid on time. We’ll get a 1-2% discount for paying early. That doesn’t sound like a lot, but when you’re dealing with hundreds of millions of dollars, it does add up.

I was shocked at how easy it was to set up Ramp and get our end users to adopt it. Our prior procurement platform took six months to implement, and it was a lot of labor. Ramp was so easy it was almost scary.
