According to this thread in the Alaska forum the reimbursement of Alaska Club memberships is no longer a problem. To see how much of your annual credit you've used, log in to AmEx, select the card in question, choose "Membership->Benefits" off the menu bar, scroll down to see the travel credit benefit. (with thanks to Lumpylump76)
Tickets cancelled within 24 hours are refunded back to the card used for the purchase.Tickets for travel dates > 60 days out can be deposited to your wallet when cancelled (this has not been true for some time). Change fees may apply depending on your status. Change fees are waived for MVP Gold and MVP Gold 75k members according to this page: https://www.alaskaair.com/content/mi...ID:MileagePlan (expand "service benefits" towards the bottom of the page). The wallet funds will expire one year after the issue date of the original ticket.

4 x $50 all in Dec 2016 worked just fine for me. Credited back about 1-2 days after posting.

Switched my airline from SW to Alaska on 1/13 then about 10-15 minutes later bought 2 $100 certificates about 10 minutes apart. Posted as 2 transactions on 1/16 and the credits posted on 1/17.

So is it safer to buy AS gift card in $50 increment or $100 increment?
I believe I can deposit the AS gift card into My Wallet in my AS account immediately after purchase, right?
