JR East Touch and Go Shinkansen service launched on April 1. With just Apple Pay Suica, you simply board any JR East Shinkansen within the Touch and Go region, no tickets or reservations necessary.
In order to use Touch and Go you have to register your Apple Pay Suica at the nearest JR station smartphone Charge machine. Put your iPhone or Apple Watch in the Charge bin, Tap and follow the screens as shown in the video to register your Apple Pay Suica.
Once registered you can enter any station then transfer and ride at any of the Touch and Go Shinkansen stations. Remember that Touch and Go is limited to non-reserved seats. The maximum one way Touch and Go fare is ¥5,150
UPDATE
Touch and Go Shinkansen has been expended to cover all JR East Shinkansen lines, registration can also be done in Suica App
