"The practice of indulgences was a payment to the Catholic Church that purchased an exemption from punishment for some types of sins"
In other words, if you had sinned some sins can be replaced by money so you can be exempt from your sins.
I think Martin Luther objected to indulgences because the act of paying to get rid of your sins is unfair and not what being sinful is about. The act of a sin should only be able to be forgiven by God. There for being able to pay your way out of it makes more people less careful and commit way more sins.
