Top 3 reasons leaders pick Ramp over Bill

Autonomous AP with 88% less clicks

Bill still makes teams click 36+ times per bill. Ramp uses AI to code, approve, and check fraud — so bills are created, approved, and paid in as few as 4 clicks.

Save time with smart OCR

Bill’s OCR is fragmented and often captures only the invoice header, requiring manual correction. Ramp’s OCR extracts accounting fields at the line-item level with 99% accuracy.

Stronger pre-spend controls that scale

Bill offers basic purchasing. Ramp Procurement scales from lightweight requests to fully orchestrated workflows — with AI-guided intake, agent-run compliance checks, end-to-end P2P reporting.

FAQ

The migration is easy - you pick a cutoff date and start sending invoices to Ramp for processing. Any invoice in Bill will continue to be approved and paid. Once the last invoice is paid in Bill, all your AP will be processed in Ramp moving forward. Ramp offers bulk CSV migration templates to migrate vendor data, vendor’s tax information and bill records.

Ramp provides white-glove onboarding support to get you live quickly - often in just a few days. Onboarding is typically delivered across three hands-on sessions:

1. Initial Bill Pay setup: accounting integration, bank accounts, AP clerks, Bill Pay approval workflows, and change management plan.
2. Vendor setup: sync/export the first bill, import vendors, set vendor bill coding defaults, confirm vendor management details (renewals, 1099, payment details).
3. Launch Bill Pay: end-to-end testing, rollout to the AP team, and Q&A.

After launch, a dedicated Customer Success Manager helps you optimize account setup, such as refining intake form questions, approval workflows, and integrations. Once implementation is complete, your team will receive ongoing support from a dedicated Account Manager.

Ramp has direct integrations with 10 leading ERPs including NetSuite, QuickBooks Online, Sage Intacct, Xero, Microsoft Dynamics Business Central, and Acumatica. If you’re on something else, we can still support you via CSV workflows, and in some cases a partner-built API integration.

Ramp has direct, two-way ERP integrations that keep your ERP as the system of record while letting your team run day-to-day AP in Ramp. In practice, that means we can sync core accounting data and dimensions, and for Bill Pay we can sync bills and payments so your books stay current without manual re-entry. The exact objects and fields depend on the ERP, but our goal is end-to-end: intake and approvals in Ramp, clean posting and reconciliation in the ERP.

Time is money. Save both.
