This invention discloses a backlight module suitable for button modules. The button module includes multiple button units and a base plate, with the button units disposed on the base plate. The backlight module includes a lower substrate, multiple light sources, and a shielding structure. The lower substrate is disposed below the base plate, and there is an outer edge gap between the outer edge of the base plate and the lower substrate. The multiple light sources are disposed between the base plate and the lower substrate. The shielding structure is disposed on the outer side of the multiple light sources to prevent light from the multiple light sources from escaping through the outer edge gap. This invention improves the side light leakage phenomenon of the backlight module by setting the shielding structure, which is located on the outer side of the multiple light sources, to prevent light from the multiple light sources from escaping through the outer edge gap between the outer edge of the base plate and the lower substrate.
