Recomended database for an e-commerce

Hi, am currenrly working on a MERN e-commerce project and cant seem to decide on which database to use between NoSQL and SQL. I will be using commerce.js to handle all our inventory, and payfast for checkouts, our database should store User(email, password), Customer(names, address), Order(retrieved from commerce.js) and Wishlist(since commerce.js doesnt handle it). Never worked on anything this big, and for most of my personal projects i used MongoDB and for this am having issue upon deciding.
