Sec. 116.0002. FEE FOR CERTAIN PAYMENTS BY PAPER CHECK PROHIBITED. (a) A person that makes a payment to a payee may not charge an additional fee to the payee because the payee elects to receive the payment by paper check instead of by an automated clearinghouse transaction or other electronic funds transfer. (b) A provision in a contract permitting a person to charge or collect a fee from a payee in violation of Subsection (a) is void and unenforceable.
