Can I just not pay application fee on one website but pay it in another?

I didnt apply twice technically because when I applied at applysuny i did not pay the application fee (hoping they would just ignore my application or smth) because they said that if I don’t pay the fee they will not process my application or send it to the college. Instead I want to go to the college’s website itself later this year and apply (and pay ofc). I just don’t want to use applysuny (found out the semester they were offering on their website (fall 2022) was not even on the actual college website itself yetso its just bs and my application would be a sad waste) also they were charging an extra 50$ when there is no application fee on the actual website.
