Use a single with method="post" for both steps.

Use two separate elements: one with method="get" for the search and one with method="post" for the payment.

Use a single with method="post" and enctype="multipart/form-data" for both steps.

Use a single with method="get" for both steps.

When is the GET method most appropriate for an HTML form?

When uploading a file to the server

When submitting a search query that should be bookmarkable
