Automated Ramp Corporate Card Limit Request Queue

Every morning, WebRun opens Ramp, finds all pending card limit increase requests, checks each against the requestor's department budget headroom and spend history, logs the requests in Airtable with a recommendation, and posts the prioritized approval queue to Slack so managers can approve or deny in one review session.

In short

How do I automatically queue Ramp corporate card limit increase requests for approval?

WebRun checks Ramp each morning for pending card limit increase requests, pulls 90-day spend history and department budget headroom for each requestor, logs them with a recommendation in Airtable, and posts a context-rich approval queue to Slack. Managers approve or deny in one session, cutting request processing from days to hours.

  • Card limit requests processed in hours instead of days
  • Managers see spend history and budget headroom alongside each request
  • Airtable builds a searchable log of all limit changes and decisions

Questions, answered

Will WebRun approve any card limit increases automatically?

No. WebRun prepares the context and recommendation, but all approvals and denials are made by a manager in Ramp. No limit changes are made without a human decision.

What is the basis for the system recommendation?

WebRun recommends approval when the employee's 90-day average spend is close to their current limit and their department has budget headroom. It recommends review when headroom is tight or spend history is erratic.

How quickly will a manager see a new request?

Requests submitted in Ramp are picked up on the next morning run. Managers typically see a new request in Slack within 24 hours of it being submitted.
