The club was founded in 2011[2] after the merger of U.S. Folgore Verano (founded in 1951 and playing in Eccellenza) and U.S. Caratese (founded in 1908 and playing in Serie D).[3] The most notable former player of Caratese has been Moreno Torricelli.

Folgore Caratese was formerly a satellite team of Novara Calcio. The club serves as a training side for Novara's young talents.[4]

Folgore Caratese has been chaired since 2023, and formerly from 2016 to 2022, by journalist Michele Criscitiello, who is also editor-in-chief and co-owner of sports TV channel Sportitalia, the latter serving also as the official club sponsor during the period.[5][6][7]
