FAQ

Getting started centers on your accounting setup. Ramp imports your existing GST, HST, PST, and QST codes, maps them to your GL automatically, and connects to your ERP so the tax and accounting work carries over without manual rebuilding. Virtual cards issue instantly, and physical cards are ordered for your team.

If you have existing vendor payment workflows in Venn, the Ramp team helps you migrate those into Ramp's bill pay system. A dedicated Canadian team walks you through migration and the right sequence for your business.

Virtual cards are active right away, so your team can start spending on day one. Full go-live, including ERP integration, card rollout, and bill pay migration, depends on your team size, number of entities, and accounting stack. Our support team scopes the timeline with you upfront so there are no surprises.

Ramp issues both CAD and USD cards on a single login, so cross-border purchases on software, ads, and travel don't require switching between separate card programs or bank accounts. CAD cards are physical and virtual; USD cards are virtual only.

Both currencies are managed from one platform with transactions auto-coded to your GL. Businesses that switch to Ramp save an average of 5% on overall spend.

Venn specializes in basic business banking, cards, and bill pay. Ramp covers a broader finance operations stack that includes:

  • AI-powered expense management with automated receipt matching
  • Real-time policy enforcement that declines out-of-policy purchases at the point of sale
  • HST/GST/PST/QST auto-coding
  • CAD bill pay to Canadian vendors
  • CAD-to-USD bill pay to US vendors
  • CAD-to-other-currency payments for international vendors
  • Reimbursements paid via EFT with mobile receipt capture and approval workflows
  • Savings intelligence that flags duplicate SaaS subscriptions, price increases, and vendor consolidation opportunities

If your team has outgrown basic business banking and card features, Ramp covers the rest of the finance stack on one platform.

Ramp syncs two-way with QuickBooks Online, Xero, NetSuite, Microsoft Business Central and Sage Intacct, with broader ERP support via universal CSV export. It automatically maps Canadian tax codes to your GL structure and posts card transactions, reimbursements, and bill payments without manual cleanup. Venn integrates with QuickBooks Online and Xero. If your team is on NetSuite, Microsoft Business Central or Sage Intacct, Ramp covers that natively.

Ramp is available to eligible Canadian businesses with a corporate legal entity in most provinces. Underwriting is based on the business, so no personal guarantee is required.

Time is money. Save both.
