APOEL are the most successful team in the competition with 21 titles, while Pafos FC are the current champions, having defeated Omonoia in the 2024 final.

The Cypriot Cup was first held in the 1934–35 season, the same year the Cyprus Football Association was founded.

No Second Division team has ever reached the final, but they managed to qualify to the semi-finals four times (Nea Salamis Famagusta in 1953–54, Orfeas Nicosia in 1983–84, PAEEK in 1984–85 and AEP Paphos in 2005–06).

No Third Division team ever reached the final or the semi-finals, but they managed to qualify to the quarter-finals once (Chalkanoras Idaliou in 1987–88).

[12] Since the 2022–23 season, the Cup winner enters the qualifying rounds of the UEFA Europa League.

[15] In 1975, the Tsirion Stadium was built in Limassol, and it hosted the final of the 1975–76 Cypriot Cup.

The final of the 1978–79 Cypriot Cup was played at the newly built Makario Stadium at Nicosia.

In the event that this was not an option (there were only appropriate stadiums in Nicosia and Limassol until 1989), the ground of the final was determined by a draw.

[15] In 1999, the new GSP Stadium was built, and hosted the 1999–2000 Cypriot Cup final between Omonia and APOEL.
