Summary
Pick Cubo if…
Tech, musical instruments and sports — stores with clearly defined categories.
Watch out for: The blocky look is distinctive but less suited to fashion and beauty, where photography should dominate.
See Cubo theme details →Pick Flex if…
Established merchants who want more conversion control without building a custom theme.
Watch out for: It is paid and only offered on Nuvemshop Brazil; support comes from FlexCommerce, not Nuvemshop.
