I'm having issues trying to map by Canadian postal code. I'm prompted with "No rows geocoded in test_cartodb dataset"
I mapped by "administrative area".

V7V 2R6 centroid is 49.339151, -123.183857 what are you expecting?– Mapperz ♦Apr 24, 2016 at 1:37

For CartoDB you will need to use the data source Canadian polygons - www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/2011/geo/bound-limit/… see this for reference >> github.com/CartoDB/data-services/tree/master/geocoder/…– Mapperz ♦Apr 24, 2016 at 1:40

@Mapperz that data is the one that the geocoder of the CartoDB SaaS has already, so users of CartoDB.com shouldn't have to upload that data to make use of it.– iriberriApr 25, 2016 at 8:27

For Canada, CartoDB (in the SaaS version) is able to geocode Canadian zipcodes only with the first 3 digits, what's called the "Forward Soration Area". So you should be able to map "V7V" and "V6E".
