A charge added to the price of a movie theater ticket for "extras" such as armrests, cushioning, etc. This is similar to resort fees charged by hotels for what has traditionally been included in the basic room charge. This isn't a reality yet, but just wait!!

A fee for paying a speeding ticket fine online. Convenience fees were invented by traffic courts after they implemented online fine payments. They recognized that traffic tickets were meant to be punitive and online payments of fines seemed less punitive than mailing a check or paying in person, so they are having traffic violators pay more for the convenience of paying online. Other greedy companies decided to copy traffic courts and decided to add convenience fees to their bills to customers.
Traffic violator: My fine is $105. I'll just pay online now that this option is available.
NJMCDIRECT: "$105 fine plus $3 convenience fee"
