do you get it vs do you get that

Both phrases are correct, but they are used in slightly different contexts. 'Do you get it?' is more general and can be used to ask if someone understands something in a broad sense. 'Do you get that?' is more specific and is used when referring to a particular point or concept that has been mentioned.
