"It is natural for the team to show solidarity with the club and the employees in these times," team captain Fabian Lustenberger said in a statement on the club's website. "We also want to show that we can only overcome the crisis together."
The club did not give details on the amount that the players had agreed to do without.
The government has authorised the league to re-start on June 8, however the Swiss Football League has said that it would wait until May 29 to make a decision.
