Wero is great but it only works within the SEPA system (it's pushed by the ECB and all the major European banks) using the free instant wire that we all enjoy by EU law as a backbone and escaping the VISA/MasterCard world.
But I think what OP is looking for is something that can be used in shops in Canada, the UK, Switzerland etc... Without being an EU use only thing. And unless suunto makes a suunto pay on the model of Carmin Pay, I don't feel there's much going on as far as payments at any shop accepting NFC payments goes.
