GLWB lifetime payout rate

6.7% lifetime payout + 8% roll-up

The seven-year income-led variant of Midland's Summit Edge series, from A-plus-rated Midland National, with an optional Summit IncomeStrategy GLWB rider (Level LPA flat or Increasing LPA that grows with index credits), a six-figure premium minimum, and caps that match the ten-year sibling.

1.25% annual rider feeAdvisorWorld + CANNEX data

Best fit

Buyers with a six-figure deposit planning around lifetime income who can defer longer than five years but don't want a full decade-long commitment, and want both a documented GLWB withdrawal rate and crediting on par with Midland's longest income-rider chassis.

Product analyst notes

How to think about this contract

Why it can stand out

  • Middle-length chassis of the three Summit Edge variants (five-, seven-, and ten-year filings) — the seven-year version is the compromise pick for a buyer who can defer longer than the short-surrender variant but does not want to commit to a full decade-long lockup.
  • Income mechanism is concrete: optional Summit IncomeStrategy GLWB rider in two designs — 'Level LPA' (higher starting payout, stays flat) and 'Increasing LPA' (lower start, grows alongside index credits) — letting buyers pick the income shape that matches their planning.
  • Caps on the seven-year chassis match the ten-year variant's top cap — Midland National has not tightened the crediting story on the shorter chassis, which is unusual; most carriers reserve the highest caps for the longest surrender length.
  • A-plus rated carrier (A.M. Best) — Midland National is one of the larger U.S. fixed-annuity writers.
  • Crediting menu pairs a recognizable S&P 500 annual point-to-point cap with participation-rate strategies on proprietary volatility-controlled indexes.
  • Annual penalty-free withdrawal allowance preserved alongside the income rider, with nursing-home and RMD surrender-charge waivers.

What to confirm

  • The GLWB rider carries an annual fee charged on the withdrawal base, not on the account value — effective cost runs higher than a flat percent of cash value once the base rolls up.
  • The strategy menu contains monthly-sum cap rows and fee-bearing strategy variants alongside the clean annual point-to-point cap — those are structurally different rates and not comparable to the headline S&P 500 cap.
  • Two rider designs, very different income shapes — Level LPA starts higher and stays flat, Increasing LPA starts lower and grows. Compare the lifetime payment streams under realistic crediting assumptions, not just the day-one withdrawal rate.
  • Premium minimum is published on the live feed and reflects a six-figure floor — positioned for the high-balance rollover market.
  • Several index strategies use proprietary volatility-controlled indexes (S&P MARC, Fidelity Multifactor Yield, S&P 500 Dynamic Intraday TCA). Their participation rates are not directly comparable to an S&P 500 cap.
  • Market value adjustment applies on early surrender on top of the surrender-charge ladder, which runs the full seven-year window.
  • Filed in 50 jurisdictions (every state and DC except New York) — New York residents are not on this filing.

Not ideal for

Buyers who want pure tax-deferred accumulation without paying the rider fee, anyone shopping below the published premium minimum, anyone who may need full liquidity inside the seven-year surrender window (MVA layers on top), and New York residents (not filed there).

Common questions about Summit Edge 7

Can I lose money in Summit Edge 7?

A negative index return by itself does not reduce the contract's account value: Summit Edge 7 credits 0% — the floor — for that indexed period. The account value can still decrease from applicable rider fees, Performance Rate Rider or other strategy charges, administrative charges, withdrawals, surrender charges, or other contract-specific deductions. In years with no credited interest, those deductions can reduce the account value. Up to 10% of your value can be withdrawn each year without a charge; withdrawals above the penalty-free amount during the surrender period can incur a surrender charge.

Is the Summit IncomeStrategy - Level LPA income rider worth the 1.25% fee?

It depends on whether you will use the guaranteed income. If you are accumulating only, you can skip it. If you want guaranteed lifetime income later, the 8% roll-up and 6.7% withdrawal rate can make it worthwhile — model it in the Income tab of the analyzer above.

When can I access my money without a surrender charge?

Up to 10% of your account value each year is penalty-free. The surrender period runs 7 years; after that you reach full liquidity. The Liquidity tab of the analyzer shows the year-by-year surrender charge.

How do Summit Edge 7's crediting strategies compare?

Use "Compare against" in the analyzer to overlay another current Summit Edge 7 strategy on the same premium, age, years, and hypothetical index path. The control labels the strategy type, rate, index, and context so caps, participation rates, triggers, spreads, and fixed-account choices are not treated as interchangeable.

Crediting design

How the interest-crediting choices are framed

Summit Edge 7 currently shows 32 distinct indexed or fixed crediting choices across 38 current rate listings, including S&P 500 Index, with 22 volatility-controlled index options grouped separately. These choices matter because caps, participation rates, fixed accounts, spreads, renewal terms, and fee-bearing rider variants are different mechanics and should not be ranked as one simple rate list.

  • S&P 500 Index: 9.4% annual cap
  • S&P 500 Index: 2.8% monthly point-to-point cap
  • S&P 500 Index: 8.4% annual cap
  • S&P 500 Index: 2.7% monthly point-to-point cap

Income rider language

What to look for before treating the rider as income

Summit IncomeStrategy - Level LPA is the main income-rider entry returned for this product. Rider terms can affect the tradeoff between future lifetime withdrawals, contract value, beneficiary value, and cost, so the exact state version and rider election should be confirmed before comparing it to annuitization or income-only contracts.

  • 6.7% withdrawal rate
  • 1.25% rider fee

Liquidity terms

Why access rules deserve as much attention as rates

A fixed indexed annuity can preserve more control than an income-only contract, but access is still governed by the surrender schedule, free-withdrawal terms, and waiver language. Those details are where many product comparisons become more meaningful than a simple rate list.

  • 10%/yr free withdrawal
  • 7 surrender years
  • Nursing home waiver
  • RMD waiver

Verification note

Use carrier materials as term evidence, then confirm the current version

Carrier materials such as summit-edge-7.pdf help explain the contract language behind the data on this page; the latest document activity we see is Apr 8, 2026. For the current brochure, rate sheet, or specimen contract, confirm the state-specific version with the carrier or a licensed financial professional.

  • Rates and rider terms can vary by state and issue age
  • Carrier guarantees depend on claims-paying ability
  • Current contract forms should be confirmed before purchase
