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.

Dining & Takeaway Chicken Chicken Nuggets Chicken Tenders French Fries Fried Chicken

      • dman1 on 09/03/2021 - 21:18

        I noticed all the good deals like 30 nugs, 9 for $9.95 and 21 for $21 have disappeared from the FOMO WOW menu - I'm in Bendigo, VIC and I've tried most of the stores here with all the same results

        good luck to those who its still working for!

        There are still some items on the FOMO WOW menu, but not the really big discounted ones that were there earlier :-/

        YMMV

  • Hintswen on 09/03/2021 - 20:58

    Nice write up, seems I was close to the end when I was looking into it but I was too busy to continue :(

  • dhnqt on 09/03/2021 - 20:58

    Thanks OP. Dinner for 3 sorted out

  • TheDukeOfNukem on 09/03/2021 - 21:00

    Lmao I added the 21 for 21 to the app like 7 hours ago to check if it worked for me and it did, but I didnt hit order. About 20 minutes ago we decided (profanity) it and got some kentucky. I left the app open conveniently, the order went through fine for me luckily, cheers a bunch OP.

    Also used the docket for a large chips and 1.25 pepsi as well, and ordered a frozen drink, they forgot to charge the drink. That's a decent ass value dinner.

      Hmmm
      Probably means it can still be ordered but requires more involved hacking than a specially crafted link.

  • eapster on 09/03/2021 - 21:02

    Got 21 for 21 and 5 regular chips. All for $26. Sweet.

    mods were prob asked to get rid of it even though kfc wont be able to fix it for some time. thats my guess XD

    • DingoBlue on 10/03/2021 - 01:37

      what?

    • Moderatorhamza23 on 11/03/2021 - 15:39

      KFC did not ask us to get rid of it, or contact us at all FYI.

  • Dex38313 on 09/03/2021 - 21:07

    Sitting at home I couldn’t cope so had to get into kfc $21 for 21 deal now home to enjoy

    KFC may need a different strategy and system for managing future deals.

    • xoom on 09/03/2021 - 21:19

      it will be a cat and mouse game. they hide the good stuff. the op and others will go sherlock holmes to uncover them.

    Have a $4 voucher sent to me too- perfect timing. Thanks OP!

  • lordra on 09/03/2021 - 21:36

    I was too late to the party, driving around, trying to buy salad for dinner. Drove past my local KFC only to find the store was closed for renovation. How does this work for next time? I click the link, the app opens, then what next?

  • littlesoldier on 09/03/2021 - 21:40

    OK… finally found how to "hack" with iOS

    the Deeplink for ios is www.kfc.com.au://

    Just create the tinyurl of the deal
    eg. "www.kfc.com.au://www.kfc.com.au/dleng/menu/4-10000-31808?action=customizeItem&userSelectsSite=false" to https://tinyurl.com/y579akc3

    Then click the shorten url and here we go!!

  • 1610jk on 10/03/2021 - 05:53

    A bit late but I made a Google Doc with all of the working/not working links on the FOMO WOW menu for Android/iOS.

    There should be 12 working deals and 10 non-working deals atm. I couldn't test all of the iOS links but they should be fine.

    (credit to littlesoldier for the iOS link hack and cooni for the API dump)

      I've met some chickens beforehand and eaten them. Can confirm that they are equally tasty as the chickens I've eaten and haven't met.

      • Aequitas on 10/03/2021 - 11:31

        really? I've found the ones I've met beforehand are much better

        • MattyD on 10/03/2021 - 12:12

          Confirmed. When the 'rona hit I stocked up on steak adding by two cows to our family.

          No bull.

      I lived in my grandparents farm years ago. Even stared them chickens in the eye as they became that days lunch menu. Taste no different to the chickens we ended up buying from the supermarket.

    I can get any of the links to open up in my KFC app with the local KFC selected just fine, but then there is no deal available & nothing in the order window once it happens.

    It doesn't seem to be working unfortunately.

  • TheJellyMaster on 10/03/2021 - 11:31

    I can confirm all deals are gone now, along with https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/608048, https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/607214 and https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/607194.

    I'm personally calling this the KFCpocalypse - the end of a historical era of deals.

    • xoom on 10/03/2021 - 11:49

      I'm sure they (KFC) took it down so they can redo the links to twarth the efforts of the op and others who posted them deals.

      Give it time someone else will find a way in again.

      • billy_bob on 10/03/2021 - 12:40

        "twarth" - the Klingon version of "thwart", meaning to rip into a million pieces :)

        • xoom on 10/03/2021 - 13:06

          Close enough

    • Skinnerr on 10/03/2021 - 14:10

      Zzzz, 10 tenders was weeks old. I'd get it once a week, now it's been ozbargained… :(

    for those missed out the 21pcs chicken for $21, do not despair, as ozb has long running deal for 12pcs chicken for $14.95 .. for extra $2.95 which i think still good deal

    • Top G on 10/03/2021 - 14:17

      Gotta buy other stuff to 'build your bucket'. 9 for 9.95 was always my favourite as 21 is too many unless you're feeding a massive family.

      Guess all good things eventually come to an end :(

      • John Kimble on 11/03/2021 - 19:08

        21 is too many

        I love what ya doing, I just feel that when a bargain reaches critical mass like this (ozbargain is a very big community now) it just seems that it’s only a matter of time before action is taken to kill the deal that’s all.

    A link to my favourite KFC deal "Chicken and Wicked Wings pack: 10 pieces original, 10 wicked wings + 4 large sides for $24.95" would be great, but I guess it would not last long anyway due to being OzBargained :)

    This is still working a treat over in WA. It's the gift and that keeps on giving. Not sure why the deal is expired TBH. I just got the Fill Up Box @ $4.95 (first time) and geezus it was huge for the price. Thanks OP!!!

  • DooDah on 28/03/2021 - 08:49

    Has there been a ressurection of any of these that no-one is telling us about? :) I missed the boat and super keen to get in on some KFC deals drool

    Great original work OP!
