- Swap cards work by taking you to a website hosted by one of the major gift card companies (i.e. giftcards.com [giftcards.com]); you then pick the brand or brands, plus amounts, that you want to redeem for, and those redemptions will result in actual gift cards from that merchant getting sent to your email.
- Electronic swap cards will have numbers and a PIN like most gift cards, but those numbers and PIN can't be redeemed at those merchants. You have to swap the card for one of the merchant brands first, which will produce merchant-specific gift cards that can be used at those merchants.
- Once you get the card swapped for actual merchant gift cards, they're still electronic-only, but you can use them both in-store or online. They'll usually come with a scannable barcode on the webpage where the gift card's number and PIN are given to you. Most merchants' gift card pages will outright include instructions for the cashier on how to enter them into the register alongside instructions for you on how to use them in-store.

It's still best to lock them to your account as soon as possible either way, but they're much more secure thanks to the extra four characters and introducing letters into the mix.
UPDATE: The eBay gift cards I ordered from this deal are indeed 17-character alphanumeric instead of just 13 digits.

Has anyone bought any of the cards that offer choice of stores, or the Lowe's card, and then taken those in store to buy gift cards at Lowe's or at any of the included stores that might offer gift cards (Barnes and Noble, Macy's, Kohl's, Staples) for a wider selection of gift card choices?
