(a) When the Division accepts electronic payment, as that term is defined in G.S. 147-86.20, for any cost, fee, fine, or penalty imposed pursuant to this Chapter, the Division may add a transaction fee to each electronic payment transaction to offset the service charge the Division pays for electronic payment service. The Division's transaction fee shall not exceed two percent (2%) of the electronic payment. (b) Notwithstanding G.S. 66-58.12, this section applies to transactions completed in person, through the World Wide Web, or through any other means of electronic access.
