If you go in person for a transaction they accept debit or MO only. no fees for those.

They seem to have a tremendous problem with vehicle owners bouncing checks to them
Just renewed my driver's license here in Seattle (in person) - - when it came time to pay, the agent had me verbally agree to such a surcharge before the transaction.
