Ram pressure stripping (RPS) is one of the most invoked mechanisms to explainthe observed differences between cluster and field galaxies. In the localUniverse, its effect on the galaxy star forming properties has been largelytackled and the general consensus is that this process first compresses the gasavailable in the galaxy disks, boosting the star formation for a limited amountof time, and then removes the remaining gas leading to quenching. Much less isknown on the effect and preponderance of RPS at higher redshift, due to thelack of statistical samples. Exploiting VLT/MUSE observations of galaxies at0.2<z<0.55 and the catalog of ram pressure stripped galaxies by Moretti et al.,we compare the global star formation rate-mass (SFR-M*) relation of 29 clustergalaxies undergoing RPS to that of 26 field and cluster undisturbed galaxiesthat constitute our control sample. Stripping galaxies occupy the upperenvelope of the control sample SFR-M* relation, showing a systematicenhancement of the SFR at any given mass. The boost is >3sigma when consideringthe SFR occurring in both the tail and disk of galaxies. The enhancement isretrieved also on local scales: considering spatially resolved data, rampressure stripped galaxies overall have large {\Sigma}SFR values, especiallyfor Sigma_*>10^7.5M_sun kpc~2. RPS seems to leave the same imprint on theSFR-M* and Sigma_SFR-Sigma_* relations both in the Local Universe and atz~0.35.
