probation services program. If a city or town court does not have such a program, the money collected by the probation department must be transferred and appropriated as provided under subsection (f).
    (h) Except as provided in subsection (j), the county or local supplemental adult probation services fund may be used only to supplement probation services and to supplement salaries for probation officers.

However, if there is a vendor transaction charge or discount fee, whether billed to the probation department or charged directly to the probation department's account, the probation department may collect a credit card service fee from the person using the bank or credit card. The fee collected under this subsection is a permitted additional charge to the money the probation department is required to collect under subsection (d) or (e).
    (m) The probation department shall forward the credit card service fees collected under subsection (l) to the county treasurer or city or town fiscal officer in accordance with subsection (f) or (g).

        (2) Extend the person's probationary period for not more than one (1) year beyond the original probationary period.
        (3) Order execution of all or part of the sentence that was suspended at the time of initial sentencing.

        (2) order execution of all or part of the sentence that was suspended at the time of the initial sentencing.

        (1) order a sanction as set forth in subsection (i); and
        (2) provide credit for time served as set forth under IC 35-38-2.5-5.
    (k) A judgment revoking probation is a final appealable order.
