Excellent Process and Rates The Canvas online process was simple and efficient. When I had questions (3-4 times) I was able to speak with Cynthia who is outstanding. She was kind helpful and organized and always had the correct answers! I picked Canvas for its terrific 7-year rates and I'm looking forward to compounding! The funding process questions were handled by Brody efficiently and Amanda was really a star getting me the new Canvas rates on my Annuity.

I am struggling with the payment… I am struggling with the payment portion as PIOLT did not take my Marcus Goldman Sachs info. Then I said wire transfer, but I never got a screen that said which account the funds would be withdrawn from. Then, I was routed to the paper portion which said success. At this time, I still do not know how this application will be funded.

I went with Canvas/Puritan Life for the… I went with Canvas/Puritan Life for the fixed interest rate. The rate Is 75 bp higher than any other company I researched due to the "do It yourself" platform. Puritan Life's BBB+ rating by AM Best is acceptable but unfortunately there is no Comdex rating for Puritan. I would prefer dealing with an agent but for 75bp it's worth doing the legwork. Canvas needs to do a better job marketing their product. Unfortunately I rolled my wife's 403b about 10 months ago into a lower interest rate with a different annuity company.

Excellent choice for a MYGA Great place for a do-it-yourselfer, or anyone, to purchase a MYGA. Interest rates are higher than MYGA's that are sold by commissioned financial reps. Online application process is quick and simple - just be sure to follow the instructions properly. Before purchasing a MYGA, or other annuity product, check your own state's Insurance Guaranty Association to understand your protection limits.
