Full guide: definition, formula, and benchmarksWhy Duplicate Payment Detection matters for Ramp users
Duplicate payments are a common source of financial waste, often going undetected in manual processes. Even a small percentage of duplicates can represent significant recoverable spend at scale.
Ramp users benefit from automated duplicate detection that flags potential issues before payment, preventing waste rather than requiring post-hoc recovery.
