Fukai Station opened on 1 April 1971 along with the rest of the Senboku Rapid Railway between Nakamozu and Izumigaoka. The station was not in the original plans, but was added in response to calls for access to the Hattashō prefectural housing complex, on condition that Sakai City carry out the station-forecourt works. The Fukai Plaza shopping zone beneath the elevated station opened on 8 October 1982. Departure melodies composed by Minoru Mukaiya entered service on 26 March 2022. With the Senboku Rapid Railway's merger into Nankai Electric Railway on 1 April 2025 the station passed to Nankai's Senboku Line, and its station number changed from SB02 to NK88.

Fukai's station name traces back to a story that the Nara-era monk Gyōki dug a deep well in the area to draw water for offerings when he founded the temple Kōrinji.
