Summary
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.
See Flex theme details →Pick Simple if…
Small apparel, fashion and sports brands that want a good-looking store without configuring dozens of sections.
Watch out for: It has fewer content modules than Recife or Brasilia, so it is not ideal for very large catalogs.
