Please fix this.

Dear Lincoln, thank you for bringing this to attention. I have reported this issue to the development team for them to look into it as soon as possible.
In the meantime, if you need the capitalization or any other detail of your invoice updated for billing purposes, please feel free to submit a support request.
Kind regards,
Andrea
