Retry, dashboard and Settings fixes, plus a founding discount reminder
- Founding customers now get an email about a week before their discount ends, with the date and the price that follows.
- Said so in the founding offer page and in the Terms.
- Replaced the long dashes in Settings, the dashboard, the customers and activity pages, the payment pages and the alert messages with plain punctuation, and a missing value now reads "n/a".
- Fixed the Settings time zone list so it can show and keep UTC, which every new account starts on, instead of showing Africa/Abidjan.
- Made the retry summary on Settings count whole daily runs, so a short delay no longer reads "0 days", and capped the retry delay fields at the 720 hours Dunity accepts.
- Card expiration reminders now use the reply-to address you set, like the other two emails.
- The dashboard no longer files the do_not_honor decline under "Unrecoverable".
- Retries now keep to the schedule you set: a 24-hour retry is picked up by the next daily run, so five attempts take about five days instead of ten.
- Retries now stop on a hard decline. When a retry comes back with a decline Stripe lists as hard, such as a stolen card, or needs the customer to authenticate, the payment is marked Failed instead of being charged again on the days after. The decline guides and comparison pages now say so.
- Win-back offers are no longer sent for an invoice with a payment pending, which a card that needs the customer to authenticate leaves behind. Stripe cannot credit that invoice, so the update page used to promise a discount that was never applied.
- Retries, and the retry buttons on the dashboard, now wait while a payment on the invoice is still processing, such as a bank debit the bank has not confirmed, instead of trying to pay it again and using up an attempt.
- The result of retrying several failed payments at once now stays on the dashboard until you close it or start choosing rows again, instead of disappearing a moment after the batch finishes.
- The failed payments table no longer makes the dashboard scroll sideways on windows about 1,000 pixels wide.
- Redrew the dashboard recovery chart so its axis shows exact, evenly spaced numbers, it reads clearly on a phone and for colour-blind readers, and you can step through it by keyboard or touch.

Security hardening and payment fixes

Five new ways to recover a payment
- Card-expiration reminders: an optional email 30 and 7 days before a card expires.
