Australia’s rapidly growing internet and mobile data challenger brand Tangerine congratulates Australian Dolphin Mollie O’Callaghan on her incredible four medal haul at the 2025 Singapore World Aquatics Championships while also announcing today the extension of their partnership with Mollie through to the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games.

Eight-time Olympic medallist Mollie who has been part of the Tangerine family prior to the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, has positioned herself as one of the greats of the sport, when she equalled Ian Thorpe’s World Championship gold medal haul of 11, the most by any Australian.  

Today's ambassador announcement is unique in supporting an individual athlete through the run up to an Olympic campaign and continues Tangerine’s commitment to female athletes through its sports sponsorship strategy.

Chief Executive Officer of Tangerine, Andy Branson, said the brand was committed to setting the standard for working with Australian athletes, who often find it difficult to achieve commercial support outside of major Olympic years.

“It has been a delight to have Mollie as part of our Tangerine family over the last twelve months, and we are excited to announce her longer term partnership with us off the back of the incredible Singapore 2025 World Aquatics Championships.”

“We have seen firsthand the dedication and long-term planning that is required to deliver the results that Mollie does in the pool, not just in Olympic years, but in between the moments of Olympic glory, and we have seen that recently in Singapore. For us, it is important to recognise that and hopefully lead other brands to provide longer term certainty to our athletes as part of their partnerships.”

Mollie was generous enough to find time in her busy schedule surrounding the World Aquatics Championships to film a video announcing her long-term role with Tangerine.

World Champion Swimmer and Tangerine Ambassador, Mollie O’Callaghan, said: “Coming off the back of the 2025 World Aquatics Championships in Singapore, I’m feeling incredibly proud and more motivated than ever.” 

“It means so much to know I’ve got the continued support of Tangerine by my side all the way to Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games.”

“This partnership has been such a constant through training, competitions, and everything in between. No matter where I am in the world, Tangerine helps me stay connected to the people who lift me up - my family, my friends, and my team. I’m so excited to keep building this journey together.”

Tangerine has invested heavily in supporting Australian sports, signing on as the official internet partner to the National Basketball League in a multi-year deal and supporting the Melbourne Renegades men’s and women’s teams.

Tangerine is known for taking on a challenge, just like Mollie, and has already given Aussies a reason to switch across to no fuss fast internet with its investment in customer service and product innovation. The disrupter telco has been the first in the Australian market outside of Optus, Vodafone and Telstra to offer a Shared Number plan for companion e-sim on a smartwatch, giving Australians portable connectivity.

Tangerine’s sports strategy has prominently featured female athletes and will continue to focus on this in the future as further investments are made. Renegades and Australian cricket favourite Milly Illingworth led Tangerine’s recent social and online campaign, and Mollie has featured extensively across Tangerine’s channels.
