Well, the auto-restock would work the same way, I imagine, and triggers the same response that eventually leads to the franchise ordering more of the book, so my guess is the author gets royalties just the same
I was a bit worried about that, because I know that gift cards are sort of a "pay now, get later" thing. But my main concern is whether the author gets their royalties (meager as they might be).
I don't have a lot of cash this Christmas, so I was going to ask for bookstore gift cards for presents from various friends/family who were asking, and I wanted to make sure that it would wonkify anyone's numbers.

Thanks for answering that, BTW.
