Nice. We have JCB in Japan but I think it piggybacks off VISA/Mastercard for overseas transactions. It'd be cool if it partnered up with a European counterpart for purchases made in the EU.
We have JCB as well but only for digging holes and moving earth.
I suppose I could do that too with my JCB, but it would take ages to get anything done since the card isn't very big or durable!
