simple wins
el triunfo de la sencillez


Explanation:
o "la sencillez triunfa"

Cuidado!!! sencillo tiene connotaciones positivas, iría bien, pero "simple" tiene cierta connotación peyorativa, por lo que como parte del lema de una compañía no te lo aconsejo.

simple wins
gana/vence lo sencillo


Explanation:
Feel a bit out of my depth insofaras I don't know if there is any background which would point to more wordplay than is immediately obvious. But you asked, so here are my first ideas!

Although sometimes we change things round when translating and go with a verb instead of a noun etc, in this case I see iavars' point about keeping wins as a noun. My problem is with finding a word which doesn't devalue the win, make it sound TOO easy, a cheap victory...

Notes to answerer
Asker: Hola, estoy buscando como agregar un poco de contexto a eso, y no encuentro el botón 1) "Wins" es un noun acá, ganancias, logros, triunfos, etc 2) La compañía hace que los usuarios tengan logros con sencillez, victorias aseguaradas, no estoy muy seguro de la colocación "Simple Wins" en este caso - gracias
