Find the best fixed indexed annuities fast.

All annuities must be purchased from a licensed agent or agency, like ours. We make it easy to search and find the right annuity. Get started by typing in your zip code above.

Fixed Indexed Annuities (FIAs) operate based on a crediting strategy that consists of three main components:

1. Investment and Term:

• Decide how much you want to invest and select a contract term. Terms typically range from 3 to 10 years, varying by provider.

2. Index:

• Interest credited to an FIA is linked to an external index's performance, such as the S&P 500® or Nasdaq-100.
• Even though your money isn't invested directly in the index, if the index performs well during your contract term, you may earn index-linked interest.
• If the index performs poorly, you won't earn interest but also won't lose any money.
• Additionally, you can choose to allocate funds to a fixed account that guarantees a specific interest rate.

3. Crediting Options:

• Point-to-Point: Interest is credited based on a cap rate or participation rate during specific periods, usually annually or every 2 years.
• Performance-Triggered Index: Interest is credited based on a predetermined fixed rate if the index meets certain performance criteria.
• You have the flexibility to divide your investment among these options according to your preferences.

The participation rate in a fixed indexed annuity determines how much of the gain in the chosen index will be credited to your annuity. It is expressed as a percentage.

For example, if your annuity has a 70% participation rate and the index gains 10%, your annuity would be credited with 7% interest (70% of 10%). This rate allows you to benefit from positive index movements, but you might not receive the full gain as the participation rate limits the share of the index increase that you earn. This covers the insurer's costs to provide you with valuable capital protection.

The participation rate can vary depending on the annuity contract and the specific terms set by the annuity provider. We list all participation rates transparently within our marketplace.

The application typically takes 15-30 minutes to complete. You can navigate between sections and your progress will be saved automatically, allowing you to exit and return later if needed.

• Personal Information: Provide details such as your address, phone number, Social Security Number (SSN), and place of birth.
• Driver's License: Upload a picture of the front of your driver’s license for identity verification.
• Beneficiaries: List the individuals who will inherit the annuity's value should you pass away.
• Financial Overview: Prepare to provide estimates of your income, expenses, assets, and debt, and answer suitability questions to ensure the annuity fits your financial situation.
• Funding Source: Indicate the source of funding, such as a check, wire transfer, ACH deposit, IRA, or annuity exchange. Note that some methods may affect processing times.

Within 1-2 business days, the team will review your application and reach out for any necessary clarifications. You will receive the final insurer application for review and signature before submission.

Processing usually takes a few weeks for the insurer to accept the application, process the funding, and issue the policy. Transfers, like a 1035 exchange, might extend this timeframe.

Once processed, you'll receive formal policy documentation. There's a "Free Look Provision" period (typically 10-30 days) where you can cancel the policy without penalties.

We’ll provide access to an online portal to keep track of your annuity, with assistance available for key milestones, such as when the rate guarantee ends.

This process ensures you have a thorough understanding and control over your annuity application and management.

Annuities are designed to provide financial security and predictable returns, but the potential for losing money depends on the type of annuity and its specific features.

Note: At Revise, we only offer market-loss-protected annuities.

Here's a breakdown of the three main types of growth annuities:

Fixed Annuities (offered by Revise):

• Returns: Fixed annuities offer a guaranteed rate of return, meaning your principal and interest are secure. You won’t lose value due to market fluctuations as the insurance company promises a specific interest rate over the term of the annuity.
• Risk: The main risk is not directly losing your principal, but rather the potential erosion of purchasing power due to inflation if the guaranteed rate does not keep pace with inflation over time.

Fixed Indexed Annuities (offered by Revise):

• Market Gains Without Losses: While you can benefit from index-linked gains, you are protected against losses due to market downturns because your principal is not directly invested in the index.
• 0% Floor: Fixed indexed annuities are linked to a stock market index, such as the S&P 500. They have a 0% floor, which means your principal won’t decrease due to negative market returns. If the market returns negative during your credited period, you simply receive a 0%, or no return for that period.
• Risk: While market downturns don't impact your principal, any fees associated with the annuity, such as strategy or rider fees, can decrease your account's accumulation value over time

Variable Annuities (not offered by Revise):

• Market-Dependent Returns: Variable annuities allow you to invest in sub-accounts, which are similar to mutual funds. Your returns are directly linked to the performance of these investments, meaning they can fluctuate with market changes.
• Potential for Gains and Losses: Because returns depend on market performance, variable annuities offer the potential for higher gains compared to fixed annuities. However, they also carry the risk of losing value if the market performs poorly.
• Fees and Charges: Variable annuities tend to have higher fees compared to fixed annuities. These may include management fees, mortality and expense risk charges, and fees for additional features like income or death benefit riders.
• Investment Risk: Unlike fixed or fixed indexed annuities, variable annuities do not provide a guaranteed rate of return or a 0% floor. Your principal is at risk, and you could potentially lose money if the sub-accounts perform poorly after accounting for fees.
