[Hack] 4 Pieces Original Chicken (or Hot & Spicy Where Available) $7.45 @ KFC (Android App Required)

2650

The previous KFC hack has been patched on iOS (but apparently its still working in Android when I tried it on my wife’s phone later on that day).

However, I found the work around accidentally when getting frustrated trying the previous hack. Works on both iOS and Android.

Here you go:

  1. Open your KFC apps and navigate to Menu > Shared Meals.
  2. Add any of the Shared Meals by pressing Add to Order.
  3. Keep pressing Add to Order until it glitches out, and the screen will go to Cart automatically. You should see 2 or 3 shared meals in cart.
  4. Remove shared meals from your cart.
  5. Go back to Menu and you will see Add-On pop up. Add any Add-On as you wish.
  6. Go back to cart and check out.

Note: you can add up to multiple 4x Piece Original Chicken and modify to Hot and Spicy as well.

Enjoy!

    Nice find, can confirm it works

      So happy to finally able to contribute something significant to OZB! haha

    Looks like KFC hasn’t fire that QA team yet

    • +27

      hope they leave them alone

    • +4

      The 'incompetency' is working to our advantage ;-)

    • more like I.T team

    • +8

      I reckon their team leader is a OZB'er

    • +18

      Maybe it's their marketing strategy
      Make people think it's a hack so that people think they should try quickly before the system issue is resolved. But it will never be resolved because that's what they intended it to happen

      • Yeah, I see it now… the quick movement of their hands, the side glance of the eyes…. They are a lizard people, skinned up and serving us their deep fried trash from their home planet.

      • will never be resolved because that's what they intended it to happen

        they wouldnt have patched the iOS then

      • Actually could be right, remember they ran the secret menu promo? This is the evolution of that

        OP - you are the hero we do not deserve

  • +4

    I don’t have auto updates on so haven’t updated the kfc app yet, but can confirm previous hack still works on iOS on that previous version app

    This one seems less fidgety though so might switch to this

    • +4

      Yup can confirm this is much easier than previous hack. You could update your apps now ;)

  • +3

    Tested on Android phone and its works. However, I can't find a way to modify to Hot and Spicy. There is no option when I reduce the Original from 4. Probably store dependent.

    If you have more people to share, I think the current promo offer $14.95 9 pieces of Original, 2 regular chops and regular gravy would be a better deal. Otherwise, great find OP.

    • +5

      Mhmm.. nothing like next day KFC

    • Looks like the current promo is targetted. I'm being KFC fan didn't get the last 9pcs Chicken for $14.95 :( perhaps I ordered too often.

      • +1

        What is your 'often'? I pretty much order once a week. lol

        • lol definitely less than once a week for me, but still didn't get that deal :((

          • +1

            @Saku-kurata: maybe you need to increase the frequency to get that deal lol

          • +1

            @Saku-kurata: It shouldn’t be targeted

            • +3

              @Quarter Pounder: Ahhh chicken police coming 👮‍♂️

            • @Quarter Pounder: Yup just re-check it again soon after I see this comment, and its there!

              • @Saku-kurata: Just checked the app for my 2 local stores that are like 5 mins from each other, I can see the promo at one store but not the other. So I guess it must be dependent on store availability?

    • I guess roast chickens at ColesWorth are healthier but not as tasty as KFC. And 9 PC's deal is a good deal. Hard to decide

      • It’s not that hard lol, depends if you feel like eating roast or fried chicken? Also you can get ColesWorth chickens anytime, but the KFC 9pc deal is limited time only ;)

  • +2

    Can confirm it works! Thanks for sharing! :)

    Will update original post and credit you for finding it!

    Beautiful and easy to do, thanks!

    soon we will have KFC QA team join ozbargain. Its a bargain when we are doing their job for free.😂

    I also found that you seem to be able to reorder from past orders, and if you had any deals in the past you can try to add it back to the cart.

    • Not always. It didn't work for me recently.

  • +1

    I can confirm that this works on iOS. App was offloaded, just reinstalled now, so I presume it would be the latest version

  • +1

    There's no hot and spicy right? Or is it only a QLD thing?

    • I can't speak of other states, but I have the H&S in every stores and I'm in QLD. Could this be store dependant if anyone can confirm?

  • +2

    nice deal, current deal is 9 pc, 2 chips and gravy for 15 so its better or add pieces to make your own bucket

    • +1

      I tried it last night, they add tiny pieces along with the bigger pieces. some of them hardly qualify as even 1/3 the size. I'm not sure if they do the same with a smaller amount of chicken.

      • Same. Typically get two tiny breastbone pieces and another two small pieces.

    • Can you use 9pc deal more than once?

      • +2

        Yes I think so, I’ve used it twice so far.

        • +1

          Come to think of it, I think cheap as chips is a better value because I can get 4 large coleslaw/potato&gravy.

          • +1

            @Suricate: Depends if you like more sides, but personally I don’t really care for them and would prefer an extra piece of chicken than nuggets for $11 cheaper :)

  • +1

    Works for me. Lunch sorted. Thank you.

  • +4

    It's interesting but for $14.95 you can order 9 pieces of chicken+2 chips+gravy with the online deal! Isn't it better value for money?

    • I didn't get that deals. Looks like its targeted.

      But yes if you have that deals its better than my post, except my post is (hopefully) for long-running.

    • Where do you live. wonder if it is targeted, coz I don't see it.

        "Not everywhere and not forever"

    • Hmmmm… I didn't check KFC app for a while as I wanted to stay away from junk food… But this deal is irresistible

    • Can you use it more than once?

    • $7.95 Zinger Pop Combo
      1x burger
      1x drink
      1x chips
      1x popcorn chicken

    how long has it been since the last 9 pieces for 9.95?

      That's era is long gone I'm afraid

    Is this wa only where hot and spicy is available all the time?

    Should fire the app dev team and hire you instead (i mean it)

    4 pieces of chicken with bones for $7.45, ouch, what is it normally? Genuine question.

    • Closest I can find in the app is 6 pieces of chicken for $16.95

      • +1

        Good god, haven't things increased in price?!!! I can't imagine paying $17 for 6 pieces of chicken.

    • Not bad if you get 1 thigh, 1 rib, 1 keel, 1 drumstick

      Massive feed for $7.45

    • Chickinflation!

  • +1

    Mmmm, delicious regret chicken.

  • Is Hot & Spicy Chicken back? Everywhere?

    • +1

      I don't think this deal is bringing back hot and spicy - it's just wherever it's already available and you can modify the order to hot and spicy eg George St in Sydney.

    • +2

      Back?

      It never left Brisbane 😎

    • Not sure which one this deal is but last time I had it it's a different and new Hot & Spicy: a tiny piece of meat about size of a thumb.

  • +1

    Awesome find, thanks!

  • +1

    Has anyone tried ordering nothing but the hacked pieces? Did they still honour the order? I always ordered something else along with them, and they never said anything.

    • +1

      Yes we do it all the time. They never asked any question when you ordered thru the apps.

      • Thanks! Good to know!

      • +1

        Can confirm. I just did this 15 minutes ago and just ordered the “extra” only.

        No issues.

      • I often find the order short, missing chips or drink. if picking up, drinks you noice before leaving, chips missing is not always obvious.

  • +1

    Nice, thanks!

    • i did it too fast. got the 6 piece hot and CRISPY argh.. but will keep the order + the 4 piece hot and spicy

  • +3

    Great hack. I also found another hack to achieve the same thing but it is alot more inefficient than what op has found.

    Will post my method if op's hack got patched.

      Legendary!

    Not in Australia but I thought I share some interesting KFC news.

    KFC Singapore is commemorating the International Fried Chicken Day, and will have its second edition of the Unlimited Chicken Feast from 3rd to 5th July at 5 selected outlets.

    Diners can expect unlimited fried chicken and a variety of sauces including Original Recipe Sauce, Cheese Sauce, Mayonnaise, Chipotle BBQ Sauce, with new sauces Mentaiko Mayo and Hot Sauce.

    New sides like Shaker Fries and Shaker Popcorn Chicken with seasonings like Spicy Texas BBQ, and Cheese and Onion are also part of the offering.

    I wish we have these sort of promotions here.

    • +1

      It used to be a permanent thing in some restaurants around Sydney - I remember going to one and there was unlimited chicken as well as a large collection of sides and salads, and not that expensive either!

      • Whoa, so there might be a possibility that this may return some day.

      • +1

        as in all you can eat + salad bar? That was in the 90's

  • +1

    Thanks OP!

    The original doesn’t work but works pretty easily once you get the hang of it.

    It has an advantage that you can order multiple extras.

    I was about to order the 5 tenders for $7.45 and a large chips for $4.95 ($12.40 total) in one order.

  • +1

    Thanks OP!

    I updated my Android app Mn just for this. Can confirm it is quick and easy! Thanks OP

      Pretty much what happened. A win is a win :D

  • +1

    Do you find that the 3rd piece is usually a bit smaller, and the 4th is practically half sized? I had a piece that was a wing about 6cm long. What tiny chicken did it come from?
    I don't like buying more than 2pc anymore.

    • I think I heard that they have a manual for that. They can't just give you large ones only. Yeah… I think it might be better to order no more than 2 pieces. But I guess it also depends on the staff as well.

      • +1

        I find usually I need 3pc.
        If I'm extra hungry I order 4 pieces and the last two pieces shrink, ending with the same as before.
        Even the wings are larger.

        I go Korean FC now, all same sized pieces.

  • I moved away from QLD to NSW and I think the thing I miss the most is permanent hot&spicy at KFC. I really don't understand why they can't do it nationwide. Or at the very least drop it in all stores once a year (like they did around 2022)…

    • +2

      The stores in QLD are owned by Collins food group - and I guess they just do hot and spicy instead of hot and crispy

  • want burgers as add=ons!

  • +1

    doesn't work with me. everytime i add to cart the add on pop up comes out and doesnt glitch. am i dling it wrong?

    seems like they have fixed it

    • +1

      Yep looks fixed now…

        Still works for me!!
