I would like to book a JR ticket in Japan from overseas.

This is a rudimentary question. I will be returning to Japan for the first time in several years.  I expect that the JR line from Narita Airport to the countryside will be quite crowded during the New Year's holiday. 
I used to line up at the Midori-no-Madoguchi (ticket office) on the day and buy a JR ticket, but I am a little worried because it is the time of year.  I heard that you can make reservations for JR tickets on the Internet, and then issue the ticket from a machine just before boarding the JR train.  However, I heard that credit cards issued in the U.S. cannot be used for this purpose. 

What do you do when you travel by JR during very busy season? ? Is it possible to purchase a JR ticket in an easy way like booking online and boarding with a mobile boarding pass like airplane tickets ?

Anyone who knows? Please tell me. Please let me know.
