 Authorize.Net are a good gateway, and so are NetBilling. These are two that I 
have experience with. Netbilling doesn't have direct support in Interchange 
but I wrote a payment module for it myself that's here:

 I've also heard that NetBilling has an "Authorize.Net emulation mode" so it 
can be used with Interchange's Authorize.Net module, but I haven't tried 
that.

 Comodo (http://www.comodogroup.com/) do security certificates for cheaper 
than Verisign or their subsidiary Thawte. I have one customer who uses them 
and is happy. The main disadvantage is that you need to install a new root 
certificate on your web server, and it works in slightly less than 100% of 
all browsers.
