I would like to accept payments to my site, using CC. Is there anyway I could do it without using any third-party gateways?
 
Except processing payments yourself, i don't think there's an another option
 
I believe you can accept CC payments using PayPal. Aside from that, I don't think so.

Most sites use Stripe in order to process cards.
 
You can set up a merchant account directly with your bank, and integrate with their api directly. I believe it is an expensive option though, and time consuming, compared to using a third party processor such as PayPal or stripe.
 
Setting up a merchant account is the only way but then you are still using a 3rd party to process the payments.

Stripe is the easiest way to get going with this.

This is what I wouldve wanted, but googling more bout it, I dont find it an option anymore (thought I would not pay for any fees using this way).

Thanks for evryone that has answered.

I have done it for a client in the past. They just went directly to their bank manager and had a meeting to set it up. It didn't work out any cheaper though - the bank still wanted to charge similar processing fees. I don't think you can avoid those fees at all, you can only reduce them as you scale.

Damn, I better not go with it then. Thank you for the informafion.
