IPHONE · APPLE WALLET
A Suica card on your phone.
On a compatible iPhone, you can create Suica directly in Apple Wallet. You don’t need a separate Suica app for this method.
- Open Wallet. Tap the + button, then Transit Card or Travel Card (the label varies by region).
- Choose Suica. Tap Continue or Add New Card, as shown.
- Add an amount in yen. Confirm payment with an eligible payment card in Apple Wallet.
- Check your new card. Your first added travel card normally has Express Mode enabled, ready for the gate.
You need a compatible device, current software, Apple Account with two-factor authentication and a supported payment card. If payment or setup fails, use the plastic-card option instead.

JR East also has an English visitor app for compatible iPhones. It is another way to issue and manage Suica. Choose one setup method to start; you don’t need both. Check its current device and location requirements before installing.
