I applied both at the front desk while checking out. For the e-gift card (not the platinum dining certificate) they actually entered the certificate number into the debit/credit card terminal behind the desk, and the $50USD was converted at market rates. As CanadaDH noted above, this is in contrast to the platinum dining certificates, which are converted at the hotel's posted exchange rate.
