The processing fee is a flat rate added to your chosen seat count and is charged automatically with your overall total.
  6. All departmental subscription plan payments by either mailed check or direct bank deposit are subject to an additional $35 processing fee. A processing fee qualifies for a payment that needs to be manually processed to process a subscription. This includes initial subscription payments or renewal payments.
