How can we gain USCF Rating online? Is it the same value of OTB Rating?
Can anyone explain it?
@pineapplepro123 is correct. If you play the scheduled events in the club you will be rated against the US Chess Online rating pools. You only can get an OTB rating by playing in person rated chess.

Yes.
The USCF Rating costs significant money. A Premium Adult Membership costs $49 for one whole year. Regular Adult costs $40. Premium Young costs $35.
It is recommended that you get it because that way you get a years worth of playing in the event that you need to practice in and perform in.
It represents and is the OTB rating actually, however, if it costs too much for the membership it's okay you don't get it.
Answering your question, yes, OTB rating membership is over-the-board however as you know it's online now. The switch to online was made to comply with COVID-19 requirements which you already know too has been widely implemented in the US in an attempt to limit the spread.
Regardless, OTB is not actually online which is why there are misperceptions that they are the exact same thing.
Fortunately for those in the United States, the USCF administrators decided to allow USCF OTB members to receive online ratings in exchange for their loyalty if they paid for membership.
That kind of sounds like being bribed for some not so great benefit...

It's an official rating from a national federation and shows in the player's US Chess profile.

Is there no USCF online rating shown in the user's profile?
Is it possible to gain online USCF ratings?
