Tips and tricks for Ramp admins: Supercharge your workflows

As busy human beings, we often just scratch the surface of most products we use. For example, did you know you can auto-enable a work mode feature on iPhones to turn off notifications during the workday?

We often hear from delighted Ramp admins when they discover a nifty feature on the platform. In this article, we thought we’d call out some of these features so you can stop spending time on manual tasks that don’t drive your business forward.
