Analysis

Coinbase's Super Bowl commercial showed a moving QR code against a black screen. This still preserves the ad's sparse invitation to scan.

Extreme simplicityDirect response

Why it worked

The empty screen makes the small colored square conspicuous. The code gives viewers an action at the same point where it creates curiosity.

Lesson

Make the next action the central visual.
