Ramp is in talks to raise $750 million at a valuation exceeding $40 billion, just six months after closing a Series D at $32 billion in November.
The corporate spend management platform is pursuing another major funding round that would value the company at more than $40 billion pre-money. The $750 million raise would represent a significant jump from its November valuation.
Ramp, which provides software for managing company expenses and payments, has become one of the fastest-scaling fintech startups. The company's rapid valuation growth—from $32 billion to $40 billion+ in half a year—reflects investor appetite for B2B financial software solutions.
The November funding round was led by Thrive Capital and included participation from existing backers like Stripe, Google Ventures, and Y Combinator. That round valued the company at $32 billion, making it one of the most valuable venture-backed startups.
Ramp's core product automates expense management for businesses, offering corporate card issuance, receipt scanning, and approval workflows. The platform integrates with accounting software and aims to replace fragmented expense management processes.
The company has grown aggressively since its 2020 launch. Ramp counts thousands of companies across industries as customers, ranging from early-stage startups to large enterprises.
The new funding would add fuel to Ramp's expansion efforts, which include international markets and product development. The company has also invested in hiring across engineering, sales, and customer success teams.
Ramp's trajectory reflects broader trends in B2B fintech, where companies managing corporate finances have attracted substantial venture capital. Other players in the space, including Brex and Stripe, have also achieved multi-billion-dollar valuations.
The funding round has not been officially announced. Terms and closing timelines remain subject to negotiation.
