GREAT BAY--The Windward Islands Bank (WIB) will officially launch the Kompa Leon Gift Card on Thursday, June 11 2026, a date that coincides with the start of the FIFA World Cup and Curaçao’s historic first qualification for the tournament.
The Kompa Leon Gift Card is an easy-to-use, single-use prepaid card in Caribbean Guilders (XCG) that can be used up to the available balance loaded on the card.
Accepted at more than 4,000 Kompa Leon merchants across St. Maarten, Curaçao, and Aruba, the card gives recipients the freedom to spend however and wherever they want.
Available in amounts from XCG 25 up to XCG 500 and valid for 12 months after purchase, the Kompa Leon Gift Card is ideal for gifting, celebrations, employee rewards, promotions, and everyday use.
To mark Curaçao’s World Cup milestone, WIB is also making available a limited-edition Blue Wave Kompa Leon Gift Card featuring a special commemorative design. The Blue Wave card is available in limited supply and can be purchased at any WIB branch while stock lasts.
