It depends on the different algorithms they use. Google Scholar finds new citations to your work on the web. Mainly, as someone reported in a previous post on Research gate questions: "If some of the citations to your article are not included, chances are that the citing articles are not accessible to Google search robots or are formatted in ways that make it difficult for their indexing algorithms to identify their bibliographic data or references. To fix this, you'll need to identify the specific citing articles with indexing problems and work with the publisher of these articles to make the necessary changes (see our inclusion guidelines for details). For most publishers, it usually takes 6-9 months for the changes to be reflected in Google Scholar; for very large publishers, it can take much longer."
Three steps to add the missing self-citation into your ResearchGate (RG)
When you have a missing self-citation problem because there are no references with your publication or there is a less number of references in that publication (e.g., your references list in your article is 40 but appear 20 in RG, you need to do the following steps to solve this problem:
1) Go to your article that you want to add the references to it and remove the full-text from publication page (if you do not upload the article, skip this point)
2) Download the article (publisher’s version/PDF) from the publisher’s website.
3) Go to Add new researchàPublished research and upload your article (publisher’s version) as private file* (if your article is not open access) and as a public file (if your article is open access), you can check the copyright for any journal using this link

When you done these steps, refresh the page or log out/in to see the changes (you will see that the number of references increases directly and your self-citation will appear in next 24-hour update).
You need to repeat these steps for each article separately.
I hope it helps you in finding an answer to your question.
Also,
Upload your publications in google scholar and RG. Citations in respect of your articles will be monitored/indicated by the search engine (google scholar) which works for information on the World Wide Web.
But it may be mentioned that google scholar citation is more exhaustive than RG.
