Vendor states its team of compliance experts is an email away; every filing and registration is reviewed by Mosey before submission to the state. The Advanced tier adds a priority SLA.
“Not listed” means the vendor’s public pages don’t mention that channel, not that it is unavailable. Ask about it during evaluation.

Plans run $3,999–$19,999 per year plus an implementation fee, and the vendor reports integrations with 80+ payroll providers.
Frequently asked questions
What does Mosey actually cover?
Mosey covers state and local compliance for US employers: payroll withholding, unemployment insurance and paid family medical leave registrations; HR compliance such as labor law posters, policy generation and handbooks; Secretary of State foreign qualification, annual reports and registered agent services; and a digital mailroom for state agency notices. The vendor says coverage spans all 50 states, DC and 1,000+ cities and counties, with monitoring and legislation alerts.
How much does Mosey cost?
Mosey publishes three tiers. Essential is $399/month or $3,999 annually for businesses with 50 or fewer employees and up to 15 states. Standard is $999/month or $9,999 annually for 50–200 employees and up to 30 states. Advanced is $1,999/month or $19,999 annually for 200–500 employees with unlimited state and locality coverage. Each tier carries an implementation fee of the same amount as one month, and add-ons such as single sign-on ($150/month), handbooks ($2/employee/month) and extra registrations ($150 each) are billed separately.
How long does it take to get up and running?
The vendor states that onboarding depends on the plan: self-serve takes minutes, while more complicated businesses work with Mosey's customer success team to consolidate systems and set up the platform in a couple of weeks. Ongoing monitoring and alerts start once accounts and registrations are in place.
Does Mosey integrate with our payroll provider?
Yes. Mosey states that it integrates with all major payroll providers, describing 80+ integrations and counting. The platform also monitors payroll and multi-location employment on higher tiers.
What security or compliance certifications does Mosey hold?
Mosey's security page states that data is encrypted at rest and in transit, that the application is continually monitored with automated tooling alongside security experts, and that it runs on standard hosted cloud infrastructure. It does not publish SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, FedRAMP or other third-party certifications on that page, so buyers with formal certification requirements should request documentation directly.
Who is Mosey not a good fit for?
Mosey is built around multi-state and multi-locality US compliance. Businesses operating in a single state, companies with no US entity or payroll, and organizations looking for a full payroll engine, HRIS or ERP rather than a compliance layer will get limited value from the platform as described on the vendor's site.
