There's three options at the start: Non-reserved, Reserved, Ticket Pick up.
Non-reserved can not be Economy/Business so if you want that option select "Reserved".
Ticket pick up is if you reserved online/via app.
Their app & trains are nicely done by the way.
Trains are based on some kind of Shinkansen from Japan.
App can buy tickets, you just scan the QR code it generates.
