Kasama Station opened on 16 January 1889 as a station of the original Mito Railway. Ownership transferred to Nippon Railway on 1 March 1892, the line was nationalised on 31 October 1906, and the route was named the Mito Line in 1909. From 22 November 1915 the Kasama Hand-Push Tramway (later Kasama Inari Tramway) operated between the station forecourt and Kasama town, ceasing in 1930. A wooden station building remains in use. JR East assumed control at privatisation on 1 April 1987, Suica service began on 18 November 2001, and the footbridge was rebuilt with an elevator in 2006.

Kasama's departure melodies feature songs by Kyu Sakamoto, a singer with ties to the city of Kasama: track 1 plays "Shiawase nara Te o Tatakō" ("If You're Happy and You Know It") and tracks 2 and 3 use "Letkiss."
