Born in Novo Mesto, Kramarič began his career at hometown club Krka. He made his professional debut in the Slovenian PrvaLiga on 22 March 2014, starting and playing for 81 minutes in a 3–1 loss against Maribor.[2] On 12 April, he opened the scoring in a 1–1 home draw with Rudar Velenje; at the age of 16 years, 4 months and 29 days, he became the all-time youngest goalscorer in the league.[3]

On 31 August 2014, Kramarič and teammate Matko Obradović moved to Maribor on a three-year contracts.[4] In 55 total games for the club in all competitions,[1] he scored once, opening a 5–1 win at Ankaran in the second minute of the match on 6 August 2017.[5] After loans to fellow top-flight teams Krško and Bravo, he signed a permanent deal with the latter on 25 September 2020.[6]

In 2021–22, Kramarič scored twice in the Slovenian Football Cup, including in the 3–2 home semi-final win over Domžale on 20 April,[7] as his team finished as runners-up.[1] On 9 October 2022, he scored his first career hat-trick in a 6–1 home win over city rivals Olimpija Ljubljana.[8] After more than 100 appearances for Bravo, he left the club in May 2023 after his contract expired.[9]

On 20 June 2023, Kramarič moved abroad for the first time in his career and signed for the Russian Premier League side Sochi, thus joining former Bravo teammate Vanja Drkušić.[10][11]
