Wigan's players are to personally refund Latics fans who bought tickets from the club for the 9-1 hammering at Tottenham.
The maximum total pay-out to fans who bought tickets at the DW Stadium would be over £15,000, BBC Sport understands.
"We feel that as a group of players we badly let down our supporters," said Wigan captain Mario Melchiot via the official club website.
"This is a gesture we have to make and pay them back for their loyalty."
Wigan were given an allocation of 565 tickets for the match at White Hart Lane, priced at £27.40 for adults, with discounts for over-65s and under-16s.
The club have not confirmed how many of those tickets were sold for the game, or how many were bought at the DW Stadium.
