Which settings do I need to change in DEV3 Lidwick (payments, email, scheduled jobs) before it works for real customers? Is anything simulated by default?

Payments, mail and push
The default is the simulated gateway, so the whole join and billing flow works without keys. Charging a stored card for renewals on Stripe, Razorpay or PayPal is not finished: the chargers for those gateways are guarded stubs and a developer has to complete them (the RecurringCharger seam in App\Billing) before you take live renewals. Mail goes to the log until you configure a mailer. None of the live drivers were run against real accounts.
Cron
* * * * * php /path/to/lidwick/artisan schedule:run >> /dev/null 2>&1
Without the cron entry nothing bills, retries or ships. The scheduler runs lidwick:jobs bill (every 10 minutes), dunning (hourly), lifecycle (every 15 minutes), expire (every 5 minutes, releases boxes held by unpaid joins), plans (every 15 minutes, times out plan changes stuck unpaid), forecast (01:30), reminders (09:00) and check (03:00, the ledger check, which exits with an error if the books do not tie out).**
