Once an offer has been accepted, as a Tasker you may submit a request to increase the task price for as long as you have yet to request the payment to be released, using the steps below:

Then go to the task and select increase price above the green request payment button.
Enter how much you’d like to add and mention why you want to increase the price.
Select continue.
Wait for the Poster to accept the price increase.
Once accepted, the payment will be added and the task price automatically updated.
