The two clubs are believed to have settled on a £4m fee for the 32-year-old Nigerian, who had been linked with Swansea City and Stoke City.
The forward is now on the verge of joining the Bluebirds after giving his approval to the personal terms offered to him, according to Sky Sports News.
Odemwingie fell out of favour at West Brom last season following his failed move to Queens Park Rangers.
