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.
Two ways to book. Both get you the same ride.
Some people are here for a week and happily install an app. Others are off a cruise ship for six hours and are not installing anything. Neither of you should end up negotiating a fare on the street.

Book right here in your browser. Nothing to download, nothing to sign up for:
Booking form not loading? Open it in a new tab.
What you get either way
The price is the same either way. There is no browser surcharge and no app-only discount.
Book now, install later, without losing your booking
You do not have to choose up front. Book in the browser, take the ride, and if you decide the app is worth it you can install it afterwards.
Add it to your home screen
The browser version can be saved to your phone's home screen and opened like an app, no app store, no storage. On iPhone use Share then Add to Home Screen; on Android use the browser menu then Install or Add to Home Screen.
Want live tracking?
Watching your driver approach on a map, saved home and hotel addresses, and your ride history are app features. If you are here for more than a couple of days, that is the reason to install it. Get the app free.
Who books in the browser
Cruise passengers
One day in port is not worth an install, especially on ship wifi. Book from the terminal in your browser and go. See the cruise port transfer guide.
Planning before you fly
Arranging your airport transferweeks ahead on a laptop is easier in a browser than on a phone.
Booking for someone else
Hotels, villa hosts and families arranging a pickup for an arriving guest cannot use an app on someone else's phone. The browser version handles it.
Low storage or roaming
An older phone, a nearly full one, or no data allowance for downloads. The booking form is a web page.
How it works
Enter your pickup and drop-off. The price appears before you confirm — that is the price you pay, not an estimate that moves. Confirm, and you get your driver and vehicle details along with the order status. Prices for common routes are listed on the taxi prices page, and if you are travelling after 11PM read the night surcharge guidefirst.
Frequently asked questions
Can I book a taxi in Curaçao without downloading an app?
Yes. You can book directly in your browser on this page. You get the same fixed price, the same vetted local drivers and card payment, with nothing to install.
Is the price different if I book in the browser?
No. The fare is identical whether you book in the browser or the app. There is no browser surcharge and no app-only discount.
Can I track my driver without the app?
The browser version shows your driver's details, the vehicle and the status of your order. Live map tracking, saved addresses and ride history are features of the app.
Can I save the browser version to my phone?
Yes. It can be added to your home screen and opened like an app without going through an app store. On iPhone use Share then Add to Home Screen; on Android use the browser menu then Install.
Can I book a ride for somebody else?
Yes. Enter their pickup address and destination rather than your own. This is how hotels, villa hosts and families arrange airport pickups for arriving guests.
Should I install the app instead?
If you are staying more than a couple of days and expect several rides, yes. Live tracking, saved addresses and ride history make it easier. For a single trip or a cruise day, the browser is faster.
