1That's kinda subjective. There are good ones like Stripe and such, but they don't necessary support your country, or the business requirements of your app. Do you want users to pay using a physical credit card swiping like paypal pay pass, or get user to scan their card using card.io, or maybe go through a REST service? Or do they pay in advance using point system where they reload points with real money on a website. – Zhang Jul 24 '14 at 09:47

There are quite a few - also depends on your country as not all providers cover all countries. Take a look at:
https://www.braintreepayments.com/
and probably http://www.paypal.com
What you want is something that's easy to code for (securely) in iOS. All the above (as well as many others) have APIs and sample code that make connecting to process payments easy and secure.
EDIT
Just seen you've added that you're in India. Assuming that means that you want to process payments in India, then I think your options (as at July 2014) are more limited. Certainly stripe and braintree don't cover India. I believe PayPal do (although maybe not with their latest APIs), so that might be your best bet.
