That's because there are certain factors involved regarding culture differences as well as reactions towards these two specific moods/associations across demographics such age groups etc., which means one set may work better than another depending upon where this campaign will be seen by its consumers.

Red and orange are the finest contrasting colors you may use on your forms. If you're unsure about other colors, keep in mind that these combinations are the most effective.

Best Tips to choose the right CTA color

Tip #1 Stand out

The CTA button needs to be eye-catching, bold and vibrant. In order for your site's design aesthetic you can use a lot of colors that stand out from the rest such as orange or red

Tip #2 Use white space and keep it clean

For your call-to-action button to be effective, make it the focal point of attention. Don't use any other colors on the page except for this one great bold CTA! Keep things clean and simple with white space or calming tones if necessary so that users can quickly scan through all available information without being distracted by anything else. 

If possible try not to have too many vibrant hues appearing in front of whatever product/service is being offered because then people might miss out on clicking into contact details - which should always take centre stage when potential clients are looking at something online.

Tip #3 Don’t use the CTA color for anything 

No matter what color you choose, make sure it’s used solely with your CTA. The only time a visitor should see the color is when they click on the button. Don’t distract your visitors by adding the same color to more elements on the page. Make it unique!
