What happened

The Second City uses Ramp corporate cards, expense management and Bill Pay to replace a manual receipt-attachment process and a non-functional AP automation tool. Ramp's OCR and automated coding handle line items and project codes across its multiple legal entities, locations and shows.

Ramp has accelerated the close process, and the sooner I can close the month, the faster I can move on to all the additional reporting demands that come from ownership," says Frank. "We were able to start our budgeting process a month earlier this year than last year.

Switching to Ramp for Bill Pay saved us not only time but also a significant amount of money. Our previous AP automation tool cost us around $40,000 per year, and it wasn't even working properly. Ramp is far more functional, and we're getting the benefits at a fraction of the cost.
