Why does Vergo rank first for Ramco?
Employees handle everything by text message — no app to download, no portal login — and Vergo chases missing receipts itself instead of waiting for a report. Vergo proposes the coding by inference from your own accounting structure and history — no rule library to build, no keyword lists to maintain, and new vendors are coded on first sight. Vergo aligns with your Ramco account, department and cost-centre structure and posts coded card spend to Ramco.
Do you have to change cards?
No. Vergo does not issue cards. Connecting your existing cards involves no card applications, no re-issuing and no banking change. Regional card programs across your Ramco entities stay as they are.
A practical example
An EPC contractor on Ramco has site engineers spending on company cards across several projects. Vergo texts each engineer after a purchase, proposes the site cost centre and the right job for job order costing, and the project accountant confirms a week of spend in one sitting before the entries go to Ramco.
