Time in Online Chess

In Online Chess, when time runs out for the other player, do we get both a Win and points? 

I've had situations when time ran out for the other player and I got the Win but not any points.

No, if time runs out that player loses. If ratings are impacted depends on a couple of factors; number of moves made, whether or not it is a tournament game, or if the player is considered to have abandoned the site.

See the following support article for details:
