Free Data for Millions
Opera’s commitment goes beyond smart technology. Through partnerships with local telecom providers like MTN, Opera’s free-data campaigns have already given millions of South Africans access to 3GB every month. This initiative helps users browse, connect, and celebrate what matters most to them. By combining smart data-saving innovation with a strong local presence, Opera Mini is making digital access more inclusive for sports fans nationwide.
A Smarter Way to Follow the Game
“As the sports season heats up this spring, we know South Africans want to be part of every moment, whether that’s rugby, soccer, or cricket,” adds Sycheva. “Opera Mini makes that possible by offering a smarter, more inclusive way to stay connected without breaking the bank.” From one match to the next, Opera Mini is proving that sport is about more than just the game. It is about shared experiences. By letting fans stretch their data further than any other browser, Opera Mini ensures no supporter is left on the sidelines this season.
