The only taxi platform in Curaçao with in-app payment
Street taxis are cash only. With Kumbai you pay by card, Apple Pay, or wallet, directly in the app. Price locked upfront before your driver even moves. No ATM, no negotiating, no surprises.
📱 Download Kumbai, FreeCuraçao's nightlife scene is genuinely excellent. Pietermaai is one of the Caribbean's best bar strips, Mambo Beach runs late, and Punda comes alive every Thursday for the free street festival. But knowing how to get home before you go out makes the night a lot more relaxed.
How the commission works
The customer pays a deposit when they book, which covers our commission. You collect the balance directly from them when they arrive. You are never waiting on a payout, and there is no money of yours sitting in someone else’s account.
Compare that with the large international booking platforms, which commonly take 20–30% and hold the full amount until after the activity has run.
Every driver becomes a salesperson
This is the part other platforms cannot offer. Kumbai drivers earn $5 for every excursion they sell, so your listing is being recommended in person, by a local, to a visitor who is already in the car and asking what to do tomorrow.
That is a conversation no advertisement wins. A driver who has taken someone to Westpunt knows exactly when to mention a boat trip.
