Does Chase flag these as qualifying purchases for points or can they tell they're prepaid cards and not credit them?

Add some product so the total is a random amount.

Comment from https://frequentmiler.com/staples...ft-cards/:
To add to my last comment, these do not appear to be working towards any online purchases at the moment. I've used these to pay rent many times, never had any problems, but it didn't work last month and has not worked for any online transactions I've tried since.

Even though they have been registered online, with my name and billing address added, and a PIN added. Balance is there, but online spend doesn't work. I've tried 3 of my 15 cards so far, none of them working for online purchases. They do still work for swiped in-person transactions (no chip or contactless).
So only can be used in store.

Mastercard Gift Card is very difficult to use, and not allowing stacking multiple gift card use even when in grocery store or restaurant. Be aware, mastercard gift card is not a GIFT, it is a torture to spend the money in it.

Are you saying it cannot be used for groceries in store?
