Phase 11D Working ✅

UI is live and functional:

• License section showing correctly
• "Not Activated" gray badge ✅
• PRO TIER locks on Check Interval + Discord Notifications ✅

One Bug Found

Order ID lookup is case-sensitive. test-001 fails, TEST-001 works.

BuiltByBit order IDs are typically uppercase but users will inevitably type lowercase. Recommend making the lookup case-insensitive:

// In LicenseService activate() — change:
WHERE order_id = $1

// To:
WHERE UPPER(order_id) = UPPER($1)
// or
WHERE order_id ILIKE $1

PostgreSQL's ILIKE is the cleanest fix. Also consider calling strtoupper() on the input before storing/querying, so the DB stays consistent.

Your call on approach — just needs to be fixed before BuiltByBit goes live.
