maybe online means something different than wendy's website
Wendy's is running one of the best no-strings-attached fast food deals on an actual meal item we've seen in years. The demand is going to be incredibly high.
Most orders are going to be coming in during peak rush hours.
A lot of fast food companies haven't kept up with the times as far as using scalable services like AWS for server tasks, and their servers are typically only designed to handle loads up to what they expect during peak hours. Wendy's in particular is somewhat notorious for having especially unreliable servers.
When you suddenly increase those peak numbers by a lot, the servers start to fail at handling requests, and things get buggy.
This explanation seems far more likely than there being some mastermind behind the scenes having secret code written to orchestrate order failures, especially at a per-city level. If you're convinced there's a conspiracy and want to gather real evidence of one though, try putting in a full-price order after your discount order fails a few times; if it also fails, there's no way they're intentionally turning down full price orders. If it goes through, you'd at least have a leg to stand on as far as having reasonable suspicion of conspiracy.

Gotta say though, there is a passionate tin foil fast food conspirator amongst these forums whose gotta have it when they want it even if the offer lasts for 7 days and repeats weekly

I also don't believe they're intentionally killing their app.
1. Customer opens app to place order for pickup or delivery
2. App doesn't work, but tells customer to just drive over to the restaurant instead
3. Customer is more likely to (a) drive there as instructed, and probably not get any app deals there either, or (b) eat somewhere else.
This app instability is losing them money. And after enough failures, people will just give up on them completely.

But yeah, while I could see a company turning a blind eye to deals failing at the drive thru, since customers they've already brought in are probably still going to buy something, I don't think the same is true for app ordering, especially if it's the entire app and not just the deal that's failing.
