(a)Commissary Credit/Debit Card User Fee.
(1)Only patrons of groups newly authorized privileges by this part must pay a user fee when using a credit or debit card to pay for commissary purchases to offset additional costs charged to the U.S. Treasury associated with credit or debit card use.

One rate will be set for credit and signature debit card transactions, which are processed as credit cards. Another rate will be set for personal identification number debit card transactions. These rates will be reviewed annually and adjustments may be made as necessary to meet the requirements of 10 U.S.C. 1065.

(4)No user fee reimbursement will be made on customer return of merchandise.
(5)All credit/debit card user fee amounts collected in commissary stores will be deposited in the General Fund of the Treasury.
