You have to perform two steps:

  1. Provide keyboard type as UIKeyboardTypeNumberPad, as mentioned by others.

  2. In 

    -(BOOL)textField:(UITextField *)textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:(NSRange)range replacementString:(NSString *)string

    method check that entered string in numeric or not.You can use following method to check numeric value:

    -(BOOL)textField:(UITextField *)textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:(NSRange)range replacementString:(NSString *)string
{
    if([self isNumeric:string])
        return TRUE;
    else
        return FALSE;
}

-(BOOL)isNumeric:(NSString*)inputString
{
    NSCharacterSet *cs=[[NSCharacterSet characterSetWithCharactersInString:@"0123456789"] invertedSet];
    NSString *filtered;
    filtered = [[inputString componentsSeparatedByCharactersInSet:cs] componentsJoinedByString:@""];
    return [inputString isEqualToString:filtered];
}

If you have textFiled available while coding, set keyboardType property of UITextField.

 textField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardTypeNumberPad;

Or you can set the same with in xib file.
