***ATTENTION***

The Office of State Treasurer has awarded a new merchant services contract to manage credit and debit card payments for all Arizona state agencies. Up until now, the Department has absorbed the fees that are assessed by credit card companies, which have been averaging over $80,000 a year. Due to state budget cutbacks, we must now pass these fees on to our customers. Beginning August 22, 2025 a $2.00 or 2.2% (whichever is greater) processing fee will apply to all credit/debit transactions. There will continue to be no fee for eCheck (ACH) payments.

Please Note: We are having technical difficulties with the eCheck (ACH) payment process. As of August 26th, it has been temporarily disabled as a payment option while we resolve this issue. We apologize for any inconvenience, and we hope to have this option back online soon.
