[Freemius SDK 2.7.1] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function is_expired() on bool using

[codex-m]

🐞 bug report

Behavior:

• What is the issue? (*) While testing Freemius SDK 2.7.1 - we noticed there is a new fatal error when user activates the product and optin to Freemius (by clicking "Allow and Continue"). I think this issue is critical because even free user ignores this (by refreshing or navigating away from the Account page). The same error occurs again after user purchase (right after checkout) when user is redirected back to Account. This can confuse new customers and even give them poor user experience.

This is not reproducible with Freemius SDK 2.7.0.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create blank /fresh installed WordPress site with a user email not yet registered or associated with Freemius.
2. Activate a Freemius powered plugin using SDK 2.7.1 (e.g. the latest Prime Mover FREE 1.9.9-beta6)
3. In the opt-in dialog click "Allow and Continue" to optin.
4. While it waits the email to be received - click on "Account" (this is accessible in Prime Mover -> Account).

Actual result: User sees a critical error on account page. It is not accessible.

• What is the expected behavior? No fatal error - user can still see the Account page.

Indeed, a critical one which holds us back, updating our plugins with v2.7.1. Waiting for a fix @swashata
