Two kinds of need

Right now, or later this week.

Some jobs can’t wait. Others can be planned. GoHandy handles urgent jobs today, and scheduled requests are on the roadmap.

Emergency requests

Available in the app

For when you need someone as soon as possible. This is how a request is matched:

  1. Find GoHandy looks for active, approved artisans in the trade you chose, nearest first.
  2. Offer The nearest available artisan gets the request and has 10 seconds to accept or skip.
  3. Move on If they skip or don’t respond, the request goes to the next nearest artisan.
  4. Connect The first artisan to accept is assigned, and you’re notified.
Up to 5 artisans are tried, one at a time.

Availability depends on which artisans are active near you at that moment. If no one accepts, the app shows “No artisan available” and you can try again.

Scheduled requests

Planned, not yet available

For jobs you can plan ahead, like a repaint, new tiling or an AC service. Our current plan:

  • Describe the job and choose a preferred date and time
  • Eligible artisans are notified. Under the current plan, this would be artisans with Premium status
  • Compare offers from artisans and choose who to book

This feature is still being designed, and the details may change before launch. Today, all requests in the app are emergency requests.

The app

Everything you need. Right in your pocket.

Find services, request skilled professionals and keep track of each job, all in one app for customers and artisans.

Trust & safety

Trust is built into every step.

Letting someone into your home or business is a big deal. Here’s what GoHandy does today to help both sides feel confident.

  • Verified phone numbers

    Customers and artisans sign up with a phone number confirmed by a one-time SMS code.

  • Ghana Card and selfie

    Artisans upload a photo of their Ghana Card and a selfie when they register. Each Ghana Card can be linked to only one artisan account.

  • Approved before they start

    New artisans stay “Pending verification” until the GoHandy team reviews and approves them. Accounts can be suspended if needed.

  • Honest reviews

    Only customers whose job was completed can leave a review: one review per job, rated 1 to 5 stars.

  • A record of every request

    Every order keeps its status history, so both sides can see what was requested, who accepted it and when it was completed or cancelled.

  • Transparent artisan fees

    Artisans top up their wallet through Paystack. A ₵20 fee is charged only when they accept a job, and every transaction is logged.

Good to know: the app doesn’t take payment for the work itself, so agree the price and scope with your artisan before the job starts. GoHandy does not currently offer background checks, insurance or work guarantees.
