For workers

Your good name, in your pocket.

House helps, nannies, drivers, guards, artisans: years of honest work usually live in other people's memories. Backmi turns them into a profile you carry to every job, confirmed by the people you worked for.

Why it helps

Stop starting from zero at every new job.

Your references, ready

Past employers confirm you once. You don't have to beg for a phone call every time you apply.

Proof it is you

Your Ghana Card match tells a new employer you are who you say you are, before you even meet.

It grows with you

Every job finished on Backmi and rated well adds to your record, and goes with you.

You hold the key

Nobody sees your profile unless you give a PIN, show your QR, or say yes to a company.

Stand out for the best jobs

Police clearance and certificates show on your profile, checked, so serious employers notice.

Free, always

Building your profile, checking your Ghana Card and sharing it cost you nothing.

Sharing

Show it at the gate, in a second.

When a household or a company wants to see your profile, you choose how:

  • Show your QR code on your phone. They scan it and see your confirmed profile.
  • Or read out your six-digit PIN. It stops working after a day.
  • Companies ask in the app first. You see who is asking and say yes or no.

You can see every time your profile was opened.

The app

Coming to Android and iPhone.

The Backmi app is in testing in Ghana now. It works on everyday Android phones and on iPhone, and signs you in with your phone number: no password to remember.

Questions

What workers ask us.

Does it cost me anything?

No. Your profile, the Ghana Card check, references and sharing are free for workers, always. Companies pay when they check candidates.

What do I need?

A phone that can install apps, your Ghana Card for the identity check, and the phone numbers of people you have worked for.

Who can see my profile?

Only people you give your PIN or QR code to, and companies you say yes to. Nobody can search for you or browse profiles.

What if a past employer won't answer?

Their reference simply stays pending; it never counts against you. The link in their text works for 14 days. If they miss it, add other people you worked for.

Can I ask my friend to vouch for me?

Only people you actually worked for should be your referees. Backmi checks for references from your own number or phone, for two people listing each other, and for numbers used by many workers; those count for nothing.

Something on my profile is wrong. What can I do?

Email us at info@modularpath.dev with your phone number and what is wrong. We look into it and correct what isn't right.

Ten years of good work deserves more than a phone call to an auntie.

Build the profile once. Carry it to every job after.
