There pretty common here in Canada, Petro Canada, Husky, Canadian Tire, Real Canadian Superstore and some Essos all have contactless readers on the pumps (Many of these chains even had contactless before EMV was rolled out to the pumps). Your right though, most countries doesn't seem to have them (or are not very widespread), although I've spotted one or two in Australia and one at a new Tesco Petrol station pump in Norwich (UK).
