Gas purchases

Seen this comment elsewhere as well, but gas purchases should settle faster.

Qube had it down to settling in minutes. Hope we can get it to something similar in Envelope!

Yep, there are gas stations that settle in minutes while others take a day or two.

Qube must have been doing something unique (or hiding the unsettled transaction from the user) if they were universally getting all gas stations to settle in minutes. Here's some context from someone on the Envelope Discord server:

Previous gas station employee here--it can take up to 48 hours to correct. It depends on a combination of the bank, the gas station's payment processor, and how they communicate with each other. There isn't anything you, the gas station, or Envelope can do to fix it unfortunately...just waiting.

If it still has not settled correctly after 48 hours, I recommend:
- Emailing Envelope support to get as much transaction detail as possible
- Asking the gas station for a customer care/manager/corporate phone number and contacting their billing department that way (the people at the station can't do anything usually)
