We now accept Moxey as payment for membership dues. If you are a Moxey member, contact us to pay your dues that way. If you are not a member, click here to find out more. Moxey is a community of thousands of business owners who support one another and, most importantly, are able to buy and sell among each other without spending cash. Instead, they use their very own community currency; Moxey dollars (barter/trade currency system). Reach out to MRA directly if you are interested in joining the Moxey community.
