## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-09-11 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> There are really two different products both called "corporate cards," and which one fits depends on whether you have meaningful cash in the bank or are building on personal credit. Here's how I'd rank them:
> 
> ## Corporate cards (charge cards + spend management, no personal guarantee)
> 
> **1. Ramp** - my default recommendation. Flat 1.5% cash back on everything, free software, and the expense management is genuinely the best in the category: it flags duplicate SaaS subscriptions, auto-matches receipts, and syncs cleanly to QuickBooks/Xero. Unlimited virtual cards with per-card limits. The catch is the ~$25k minimum bank balance to qualify, which rules out the smallest businesses.

> 
> **2. BILL Divvy** - the most realistic option if you don't clear Brex's bar. Roughly a $20k minimum, and its strength is budget-first design: allocate limits to teams or projects, with alerts before someone overspends rather than after. Points-based rewards that scale with how often you pay the balance. ([Keep](https://www.trykeep.com/newsroom/brex-vs-divvy-vs-ramp))

> **3.
