You can use this method... or you can use it like reference :)

- (NSString*)encodeStringTo64:(NSString*)fromString
{  
    NSData *plainData = [fromString dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
    NSString *base64String;
    if ([plainData respondsToSelector:@selector(base64EncodedStringWithOptions:)]) {
        base64String = [plainData base64EncodedStringWithOptions:kNilOptions];  // iOS 7+
    } else {
        base64String = [plainData base64Encoding];                              // pre iOS7
    }

    return base64String;
}
