The seed round was led by NfX and Galaxy Digital to support global expansion and team growth.
Ramp provides a SaaS analytics platform that enables finance teams to generate customisable, cohort-based forecasts. The company aims to replace traditional spreadsheets with automated financial modelling.
Ramp has secured 10.1m dollars in a seed funding round led by NfX and Galaxy Digital. The round also drew participation from Seedcamp, firstminute capital, Fabric Ventures, Mozilla, and a roster of prominent business angels from the technology and fintech sectors.
The capital will be deployed to scale the startup network of developer partners, expand into new geographic regions, and triple the size of the team by the end of the year. Founded in 2017, the company provides software development kits that let users purchase digital assets natively within web and mobile applications without needing to navigate external exchange platforms.
From the founder
"Few things are as impactful on economic growth, the human effort, and technological innovation as financial services. If we’re to continue to grow as a society, we need to make sure our financial systems are following suit. Crypto is one of the most promising technological frontiers for advancing finance and payments. For years however, the industry was focused on speculation, creating products like crypto exchanges. Unlocking crypto’s use cases seemed like an afterthought. Now we feel it’s time for the industry to start delivering useful applications and Ramp is here to make the mainstream transition to crypto much easier."

Investor perspective
"It’s a matter of when, not if, non-crypto-native users are going to use crypto-native products. The question of “when” depends on usability. To date, crypto products have had a high barrier to entry – you have to basically go through a Rube Goldberg machine to use many products. Mainstream users are not going to do this. That’s what excited us about Ramp. Ramp dramatically reduces the crypto barrier to entry for both non-crypto-native users and non-crypto native developers. We see Ramp, therefore, helping to meaningfully accelerate crypto adoption through enabling mainstream use cases."
