'even more cash' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to property as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?

'fork out daily? rush to limit it' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'daily?' could be 'char' (both can mean a cleaner) and 'char' is located in the answer.
'rush' could be 'surge' (synonyms) and 'surge' is found within the leftover letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

'to' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for surcharge that I've seen before include "Additional item on bill" , "More to pay" , "Additional cost" , "addition to cost" , "Extra payment" .)
