Receiving business payments

Hi all, I run a services business which is currently paying a lot of fees using the stripe payment gateway and I wondered if it would be possible to request payments directly into our bank account to avoid the stripe fees. Our customers have a discussion with us prior to booking our service where we then tell them how to make payment which is usually via the website. Could we not just ask them to pay directly into our bank or would that be seen as unprofessional? I understand this wouldn't work for e-commerce but that is not our business model.

Just wanted to get your input and thoughts please.
