Contactless was a thing here in the US, but at least in my experience, it's going away. I've had a few credit cards replaced over the past couple of months (one Chase, one Amex) and while they've gained an EMV chip, they've also lost contactless functionality (which went by Blink and ExpressPay respectively).
