Can you pay all payments from (1040V) online direct debit through one of the sites listed on IRS (ex: pay1040.com) and disregard the payment voucher?

I owe $502 total but I paid $15 to test the site

Do I need to pay $502 by check like it says on my payment voucher on turbo tax or since I paid $15 direct debit even though it doesn’t show on turbo tax account voucher  pay $487. I’m worried of not having it all in the same day.

Exactly how did you only pay $15?  You can’t make a partial payment on Turbo Tax.  Did you do it directly on the IRS website?  What payment voucher did you get?  Was it a 1040V of a 1040ES?

I used pay1040.com one of the sites listed on IRS I wanted to test if it would come out of account owed so I only did $15
My payment voucher (1040V) on turbo tax says $502 but I was told I can pay through direct debit (with convenice fees) but turbo tax doesn’t reflect what I owe minus the $15

No, Turbo Tax won’t know if, when or how you pay.  You need to keep track of it yourself.  The IRS doesn’t update Turbo Tax when they get a payment.  You can pay directly on tne IRS .  I think you can set up Direct Debit and not use a credit card to avoid the convenience fee.
