After beating PSGC Ciamis on penalties in the 2014 Liga Indonesia Premier Division semi-final, they were promoted to the Indonesia Super League.[5] On 27 November 2014, Borneo FC won their first title by becoming champion of the 2014 Liga Indonesia Premier Division after beating Persiwa Wamena 2–1 in the final.[6]

Borneo Samarinda competed in the 2024–25 ASEAN Club Championship which is their first official participation in international tournament. The club was then drawn in a group alongside Thai club Buriram United, Singaporean club Lion City Sailors, Malaysian club Kuala Lumpur City, Philippines club Kaya—Iloilo and Vietnamese club Công An Hà Nội. On 22 August 2024, Borneo Samarinda won 3–0 against Lion City Sailors at home.
