# Can I rebalance funds from one channel to another?

Alby Hub lets you rebalance the bitcoin in your channels, allowing you to distribute funds across them more effectively. For example, you can increase the receiving capacity of one channel by moving bitcoin to another channel with less bitcoin.

{% hint style="info" %}
[Swaps](https://guides.getalby.com/user-guide/alby-hub/node/swap-in-and-out) are a recommended alternative to rebalancing.
{% endhint %}

### How to rebalance your channels

Open **Alby Hub** -> **Node** page -> press the **3 dots** -> click the "**Rebalance In**" option.

Press "**Confirm**" and wait for the payment to complete.

The swap service is powered by Megalith LSP and is currently in beta. Currently, you can only choose the channel to rebalance in. If you find this service useful, let us know!
