As long as they are disclosing the correct apr they can charge interest on any sort of fee.
For example, a friend of mine brought me a Chase statement the other day. He did a modest BT and the BT fee was 3% of the balance. His fixed interst rate is 6.99% and they disclose that but due to the BT fee the effective rate for this billing cycle was 42%-and they disclosed that which led to his question.
