It's a bummer that while Google Wallet on Android phones supports Suica, they only offer the feature if the device was sold originally in Japan. Presumably they didn't want to pay Sony the licensing fees for the technology on non-JP devices.

iPhones have it worldwide, so a visitor to Japan can use Apple Pay to stand up a card and fund it.
