Chicken nugget fans have a new reason to open the Wendy's app: 10-piece nuggets are available for just $1.99 through a limited-time digital offer.

The deal, which launched Aug. 24 and runs through Sept. 27, is available at participating Wendy's locations across the U.S. and applies to both Classic and Spicy Nuggets. The discounted price is available daily throughout the promotion, so the deal can be redeemed more than once during the roughly five-week window.

How to Get the Deal

To take advantage of the offer, customers need to download the Wendy's app and either create a new Wendy's Rewards account or sign into an existing one. From there, shoppers should look for the $1.99 10-piece Nuggets offer within the app, add it to their order, and make any qualifying purchase to unlock the discount. The deal cannot be redeemed in-store without going through the app, and a Wendy's Rewards account is required to access it.

Why This Deal Stands Out

Ten-piece chicken nuggets typically run several dollars more at full menu price, making the $1.99 offer a notable discount for regulars who already have the app installed. Since the deal refreshes daily rather than being a one-time-use code, it gives frequent visitors a reliable way to save on a menu staple throughout the rest of summer and into early fall.

Wendy's has leaned on app-exclusive deals like this one in recent years as a way to drive downloads and repeat visits through its rewards program, a common strategy among major fast food chains looking to build direct relationships with customers through their own digital platforms rather than third-party delivery apps.

Anyone who's been holding off on trying Wendy's nuggets, or simply looking for a way to stretch a fast food budget a little further, has roughly a month to take advantage of the offer before it's set to expire on Sept. 27.
