Work with Taxi Sri Lanka
Partner programme
Earn on every transfer your guests take
For hotels, guesthouses, villas, homestays and Airbnb hosts across Sri Lanka: a free kit for your rooms, your website and your front desk — and half the margin on every trip your guests book through it.
Your guests need a car from the airport, and a car for the day they want to see Ella or Sigiriya. Today they either arrange it on arrival with whoever shouts loudest, or they ask you and you spend twenty minutes on the phone. Neither earns you anything.
What you get
A poster for every room
Ready to print from your partner page, already carrying your own QR code. Guests plan tomorrow from their room — that is when they look for a car, and that is where the poster works while nobody is at your desk.
A booking box for your website or listing
One line to paste on your “Getting here” page. No plugin, no account, nothing that can break your site. There is also a plain button and a banner if you prefer something smaller — and a plain link if all you have is an Airbnb listing.
A link to send before arrival
A short message you can copy into WhatsApp or into your booking confirmation email, so guests arrive with the airport already sorted.
A desk you can book from
When a guest asks, take the booking yourself in under a minute. Same fixed price they would get online, and it counts as yours.
What your guests actually see
Not a mock-up: the poster below is the real one, shrunk, and the QR code on it works — try it with your phone. Yours will carry your name, your town and your own code.
Hello, this is the Ocean Palms. If you need a car from the airport — or anywhere on the island — you can book it here with our transfer partner. The price is fixed before you travel and the driver waits for your flight.
Private transfers, fixed price
Booked by guests of Ocean Palms. The driver waits for your flight.

How the money works
You get half the margin, not half the fare. The margin is what is left of the price once the driver is paid — sharing the fare itself would mean promising, on some trips, more than the trip earns, and a promise like that gets broken the first time it is tested.
Your partner page shows every trip with all four figures: what the guest paid, what the driver cost, what was left, and your share. Nothing is hidden, including what we pay drivers — you can check the arithmetic on every single line.
How it works
You send the form below
Name of the place, your town, and one way to reach you. That is all we need to start.
We open your partner file
You get a partner code, an access code and a page of your own, usually the same day. It costs you nothing.
You put the tools where your guests are
Print the poster, paste the link, keep the booking page open at reception. Every tool carries a different code, so you can see which one actually works.
We settle once a month
You see every trip, what it earned and what it cost, the moment it is done. We issue a statement and transfer your share.
What it costs you
Nothing. No fee, no minimum, no exclusivity — keep the drivers you already work with. All we ask is that the poster stays up and that you mention us when a guest asks about a car. If it does not work for you, tell us and we close the file; the trips already done are still paid.
Apply for a partnership
One minute, no account, no commitment. We read every application ourselves and reply within two working days.
Questions we get asked
- Does it cost anything to become a partner?
- No. There is no fee, no minimum, no subscription and no exclusivity. You keep working with the drivers you already use. The poster and the QR codes are free, and you print them yourself from your partner page.
- Do my guests pay more because they came through me?
- No. Your guests pay exactly the price shown on our public website, with the same free cancellation up to 24 hours before pick-up. Your share comes out of our margin, never out of their fare.
- How much do I earn on a transfer?
- Half of the margin on every completed trip — the margin being what is left of the fare once the driver is paid. We do not publish an average because it depends entirely on the routes your guests take; a long airport transfer and a short town hop are not the same business. Your partner page shows the exact figures on every single trip.
- I only rent one villa on Airbnb. Is that too small?
- No. A three-bedroom villa whose guests all arrive from the airport sends the same kind of work as a thirty-room hotel. The kit is the same; you will simply use the link and the message rather than a hundred posters.
- How do I know the amounts are right?
- Your partner page lists every trip with four figures: what the guest paid, what the driver cost, what was left, and your share. Nothing is hidden, including what we pay drivers, so you can check the arithmetic on every line.
- How and when am I paid?
- Once a month, in Sri Lankan rupees, against a statement listing each trip. A trip enters a statement once it has been completed and paid for, and the figures on a statement are fixed the moment it is issued.
