• Nishitetsu Tenjin Omuta Line: Ijiri ⇄ Sakuranamiki

Zasshonokuma Station opened on 12 April 1924 on the privately operated Kyushu Railway. Because the nearby JNR Kagoshima Main Line already had a station of the same name (now Minami-Fukuoka Station), the Nishitetsu stop was renamed Kyutetsu Zasshonokuma on 1 July 1939, then Nishitetsu Zasshonokuma on 22 September 1942 after a corporate merger. After the JNR station was renamed Minami-Fukuoka in 1966, the Nishitetsu side reverted to its original name on 1 March 1971. The station underwent a barrier-free upgrade in November 2004, nimoca cards launched in May 2008, and an elevated station replaced the at-grade facility on 28 August 2022 with a new station building opening on 24 March 2023.

Masayoshi Son founded Unison World — the predecessor of SoftBank Group — in a building near this station; the site later housed a SoftBank shop before being demolished for a residential development.
