Ramp, a financial operations provider, announced that it has acquired Juno, a platform that manages travel for non-employees — or guest travelers. The company plans to keep Juno operating independently within Ramp.

With this acquisition, said the announcement, Ramp is deepening its travel capabilities, investing in a suite of travel products and TMC partnerships to meet customer needs, no matter the company size.

For most companies, said the announcement, travel doesn’t stop at employees. Candidates, contractors, customers and other non-employees all need to get somewhere as well — whether it’s a tech company flying in a final-round candidate, a health organization coordinating traveling doctors, a university hosting visiting researchers or a sports and media company managing event logistics.

These workflows, said the announcement, are high-volume, time-sensitive and operationally complex. And because they involve non-employees, said the announcement, they’ve historically existed outside core financial tools. Juno was built specifically to solve that problem, according to the announcement.

Karim Atiyeh, CTO of Ramp, said: “Guest travel is a hard problem. It’s messy, operationally heavy, and has real business consequences.” A bad candidate travel experience, he said, “can cost you a hire.” Juno, said Atiyeh, “built something strong in a category that matters.” Ramp’s job now, he said, is “to give them leverage and stay out of the way.”

Juno was founded by Sam Felsenthal, Devon Tivona, and Kate Porter in December 2024. Tivona said the team has spent the better part of a decade working on the guest travel problem. He said: “These aren’t anonymous business travelers. They’re candidates, customers, partners. The trip is part of the impression. Ramp has the platform, the customers and the ambition. That’s why we’re here.”
