This works when you, instead, do the following:

1. install 1.36.x or 1.35.x
2. launch Brave using production envs.
3. click on Skip welcome tour
4. click on Start using Brave Rewards on the new-tab page widget
5. now load brave://rewards
6. note the Next payment date is fine: 5th

@LaurenWags this is a different issue as 1.35.x and above no longer wait for a response from the server. I will investigate soon. However, as this would only happen on a fresh install and after a page refresh fixes itself, I would say we do not need to uplift. Thanks. cc @jsecretan
