How did you set this up?

I actually ended up getting this card, and, when I try to add this as a 'Payment Method' in Google Wallet, after merely entering the first two numbers on the card (35xxx...) it detects that it's JCB (graphic of the logo appears), but, also at the same time displays the message:

'Cannot use this card type for this purchase'

Funny thing is, right in the 'Google wallet help, it actually says they support JCB:

Go figure.
