Inspired by recent posts, I went looking into what makes these app deep links tick.
I found out.

Here are some goodies:

21 Pieces Original Recipe Chicken $21 Expired
9 Pieces Original Recipe Chicken $9.95 Expired
30 Nuggets $10 Expired
3 Nuggets Go Bucket $2.50 Expired
Ultimate Box $10 Expired
10 Original Recipe Tenders $10
Original Recipe Twister $5
1 Original Recipe Tender Go Bucket $2.50
Regular Chips $1
2 for 1 Zinger Burgers $5.95 credit to Rrocky Dear mod: still working at some stores, not only for me
Fill Up Box $4.95 credit to Rrocky

Links tested to work on both iOS and Android.
These links shouldn't expire when they pull a promotion (unless they remove it from the menu).

Troubleshooting

If the links open in your browser (not the app) and you just get a 404 Not Found error,

iOS:
Long press the link and tap 'Open in "KFC"'. If this option isn't present, see if there's an app update available in the App Store.
Or try this solution from tinysoldier

Android:
click the Red KFC icon in the url box to get redirected to the KFC app
For color os / oppo users… heres how to adjust your app settings in order to use the links to take you directly to the app.

Nerdy write-up:

The Android-only links that have been posted before were Google AdWords links that look like this

https://www.google.com/aclk?sa=L&ai=DChcSEwjIypPa24jvAhVFDCs…

that redirect to something like this

intent://www.kfc.com.au/dleng/menu/4-10000-31783?action=customizeItem&userSelectsSite=false&gclid=(removed)&gref=(removed)#Intent;scheme=https;package=com.kfcaus.ordering;S.market_referrer=gref%3D(removed);end

which is a shame because the intent:// URL scheme isn't recognised by iOS.

On iOS, KFC uses branch to manage promotional app deep links, with links distributed that look like this

https://kfcau.app.link/mkBC1Q1A4db

that on mobile, if the app is installed, will redirect to something like this

https://www.kfc.com.au/dleng/menu/4-10000-31519?action=custo…

These links also work on Android.

The easiest way to pull the menu from KFC's servers is to MITM the app. It's found at

https://nolo-api-ssa.ncrsaas.com/v1/Menus/(storenumber)/10000?includeInvisible=False

You can generate your own deep links by using the item's five digit MenuItemId from the raw menu I've dumped here.
I dumped this just now and eyeballing it there's some new menu items that I haven't seen before (originally started working on this last week) including a whole FOMO WOW menu.

                          or this?

                          https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/10185511/redir

                          I couldn't get the KFC icon to show up on my browser (Firefox & Chrome on Pixel 4a). However I could long press on the link and select "Open in external app". Just PSA for others that may be in the same boat!

  • S2200 on 09/03/2021 - 19:43

    Is KFC actually having these items at these prices like a special discount or something or is this an actual hack that hacks the price (latter means this is stealing)?

    • Yummy on 09/03/2021 - 19:50

      I paid $9.95 for my 9 pcs. I must be guilty & will go to jail & wont collect 20 cents.

    • DingoBlue on 09/03/2021 - 19:51

      They’re actual menu items that are not normally viewable. Suppose they might be for special edm offers or coupons or family and friends or whatever anyone can guess.

      It’s not a hack in terms of overriding the price.

      • S2200 on 09/03/2021 - 19:56
        +1

        That makes sense. So it sounds like the links are direct links to menu items at special rates which aren't supposed to be available normally (loophole being exploited?).

        • Look Up on 09/03/2021 - 20:12

          Yes it's a loophole being exploited and linked to the individual Loyalty # on each app install - very easy to trace from KFC's point of view

          Some stores have already disabled taking online orders because of the issue

          If NCR can't close the loophole tonight, would not be surprised if parts of the app or online ordering are completely disabled
