Are folks purchasing these $100 gift cards thro' the AA website (this one https://giftcards.aa.com/)? Does it matter if it's virtual or plastic?

I'm about to try and get the $200 credit so just making sure I got it right. I have to link my Amex account w/ AA first (as I understand it) and then purchase the card thro' the AA website w/ my Amex.
