Now, customers can sync expenses from Ramp cards directly into their Carta Fund Administration.

Stay ahead of your firm’s spend with real-time visibility into your Ramp corporate card expenses. With transactions flowing directly into your general ledger, you get a more connected, accurate view of your firm’s financials.

How this helps:

• Real-time Financial Visibility: See your financial position without delay—down to the transaction level. Now you can easily update your GL by syncing your latest expenses straight from Ramp.
• Accurate and Consistent Reconciliations: Speed up month-end close with built-in categorization rules. Use our pre-built mappings (or create your own) to populate your Carta general ledger accounts based on your Ramp categories.
• A Single Source of Truth: Maintain audit readiness with full transaction-level visibility. Sync expenses as soon as they’re ready or hold them in Ramp’s review queue until approved. Drill into every detail from within your Carta GL.

Why this matters:

Disconnected expense data slows you down. With Carta and Ramp working together, you can confidently manage spend, simplify reporting, and keep your books in order—without switching between tools.

Who this is available for:

This is immediately available for Carta Fund Admin customers who have a management company on Carta.

Don’t have your management company on Carta? Or unsure if you do? Reach out to your Fund Admin team or navigate to “Management Companies” towards the bottom of the left-hand menu in your Carta account.

How to get started:

It’s simple to get set up with Carta's Ramp integration in just a few steps. Start by completing the Ramp task in your Carta dashboard to connect the two platforms.

Tactyc now integrates directly with Carta Fund Admin, allowing you to automatically sync fund cash flows from the GL into your Tactyc fund construction model.

What’s new?

We have updated salary, total cash compensation, and equity benchmarks for all job areas and specializations across both valuation and headcount based peer groups.

Benchmark Trends

In aggregate, salary and total cash compensation benchmarks are slightly higher than our last release, increasing by a bit more than 1%. These increases were consistent across all valuation peer groups and levels. Similar to previous updates, specialization level data continues to change more than the broader sample, as sample sizes for these roles are smaller than job area level data.

Equity benchmarks are increasing in aggregate, showing about a 3% increase versus last quarter. Similar to last quarter, increases are fairly tightly correlated with company valuation, with higher valuation benchmarks seeing the largest increases.

What were the largest areas of movement from these benchmarks?

Salary - Salary benchmarks for most job areas and specializations are within 2% of last quarter’s data. Social Media Marketing and Logistics & Supply Chain saw the largest increases versus last quarter

Equity - Equity benchmarks are generally within 5% of last quarter’s benchmarks. There is more variation by role in this quarter’s release, with Recruiting, Strategy, and Partnerships showing the largest increases. Mobile, Logistics & Supply Chain, and Art & Graphic Design are showing the largest decreases

LPs can now nominate a witness to provide a digital witness signature to their subscription documents during closings. 

What’s new?

Certain jurisdictions legally require a witness for subscription documents. A witness is a third-party individual who observes someone signing a document and provides a signature themselves to confirm that the original signature is genuine.

Previously, signature witnessing was a clunky process which involved downloading and signing physical documents. Now, signatures can be securely witnessed online in a few clicks. 

Who is it available for? 

Digital witnessing is available to fund administration customers and their LPs when closing a fund domiciled in the UK, Jersey, Singapore or the Cayman Islands.

How do I use it?

As an LP:

Upon signing the subscription documents, you will be prompted to add a witness and enter their details to complete signing. The witness will then receive an email. You can nudge the witness by resending the signature request email. 

As a witness:

You will receive an email informing you of the witness signature request.

Follow the link in the email to witness the signature on the LP’s subscription documents. 

After you have signed, you’ll receive an email confirming that the process is complete. 

As a GP:

You’ll be able to track the progress of signatories within Carta. 

When all signatures are complete, you can countersign the subscription documents.
