The association was created in 2001 from a merger of Zultse VV and KSV Waregem . The first was founded in 1950 as Zulte Sportief and merged with SK Zulte in 1971 . For a long time the team only played second or even third class. KSV Waregem was founded in 1925 as Waregem Sportief and received the privilege of calling itself royal in 1951 and has since acted as KSV Wageren (Dutch: Koninklijke Sportvereniging Waregem). KSV Waregem played in the first Belgian league for years.

Since the introduction of the play-offs in the 1st division , Zulte Waregem achieved the best placement in the 2012/13 season as runner-up. As a result, the club had the right to participate in the third qualifying round for the Champions League, but failed there at PSV Eindhoven . In the subsequent play-off games for the Europa League against APOEL Nicosia , they qualified for the group stage. There they were eliminated as third in the group.
