B. Payments for any fees required to be paid by any person to the Department of Public Safety, except as otherwise provided by law, may be made by:

1. 1. The person’s personal or company check, as prescribed by rules of the Department;
2. 2. Cash, if paid in person;
3. 3. Money order or certified check; or

4. 4. A nationally recognized credit card issued to the person. The Commissioner may add an amount equal to four percent (4%) of the amount of such payment as a convenience fee for credit card payments. Such convenience fee shall be deposited in the State Treasury to the credit of the Department of Public Safety Revolving Fund, created pursuant to Section 6-117 of Title 47 of the Oklahoma Statutes. For purposes of this paragraph, "nationally recognized credit card" means any instrument or device, whether known as a credit card, credit plate, charge plate or by any other name, issued with or without fee by the issuer for the use of the cardholder in obtaining goods, services, or anything else of value on credit which is accepted by more than one thousand merchants in this state. The Commissioner shall determine which nationally recognized credit cards will be accepted; provided, however, the Commissioner must ensure that no loss of state revenue will occur by the use of such card.
