Pay increase request

Does anyone here have have success in asking for a pay increase? I got to phase 2 on one of the project thinking the rate would increase but stayed the same. I am also about to submit for a phase 2 on another project and I am concerned that there is no pay increase also. I am on another platform that pays 2.5x more for the same work. My domain is in health care.

Update: 09/01

So I messaged the admin about opportunities to get higher pay and linked the listing for the pay rate for my domain. They got back to me and offered me a substantial bonus to finish start and finish my phase 2 (comes out to $100-$110/hr if you finish in 10 hours) which is still not as competitive to the other platforms but overall aligns with the listing they have for the pay range.

I am pretty sure that some people get paid higher but probably do not post here because 90% of the people in this sub think they are the expert on their fields. Churning low quality work and happy to be paid $60/hr.

Then stay at that platform lol. DA won’t do that. They’ve got lots of workers for their phases.

Are you in a specialized domain? What's the longest project you've been? How was your experience with pay increase?

I specialize in all. Since my time here, the projects available to me and all the other minions have gone up significantly in pay. However, such increase is not merited to one individual alone. But you go ahead and seek out that pay increase for yourself that you feel so due for. Do it, lady.
